Title
Io.netty/netty-codec-redis: netty: redisarrayaggregator nested resp headers multiply patched preallocation limits
Summary
A flaw was found in Netty's `RedisArrayAggregator` component. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending specially crafted nested Redis (RESP) array headers. This can cause the `RedisArrayAggregator` to eagerly preallocate a large amount of heap memory, leading to heap memory exhaustion and a Denial of Service (DoS) for applications using `RedisDecoder` with `RedisArrayAggregator` on untrusted traffic.
Severity

The limits are independent, but the allocator remains eager: every positive nested RESP array header creates `new ArrayList\u003cRedisMessage\u003e(length)` before any child element exists.\r\n\r\nWith the default constructor, an attacker can send nested array headers with length `1,000,000` until the default nesting limit of `1024` is reached. This can reserve up to `1,024,000,000` child slots from roughly 12 KB of RESP input. This is backing capacity, not logical list size: `ArrayList(int)` constructs an empty list with the specified initial capacity.\r\n\r\n## Technical Details\r\n\r\nCurrent `decodeRedisArrayHeader(...)` checks the two limits independently:\r\n\r\n```java\r\nif (header.length() \u003e maxElements) {\r\n throw new CodecException(\"this codec doesn\u0027t support longer length than \" + maxElements);\r\n}\r\n\r\nif (depths.size() \u003e= maxNestedArrayDepth) {\r\n releaseAndClearDepths();\r\n throw new CodecException(\"max nested array depth exceeded: \" + maxNestedArrayDepth);\r\n}\r\ndepths.push(new AggregateState((int) header.length()));\r\n```\r\n\r\n`AggregateState` i"
