CVE-2026-34148 PUBLISHED

Fedify affected by resource exhaustion caused by unbounded redirect following during remote key/document resolution

Assigner: GitHub_M
Reserved: 25.03.2026 Published: 06.04.2026 Updated: 06.04.2026

Fedify is a TypeScript library for building federated server apps powered by ActivityPub. Prior to 1.9.6, 1.10.5, 2.0.8, and 2.1.1, @fedify/fedify follows HTTP redirects recursively in its remote document loader and authenticated document loader without enforcing a maximum redirect count or visited-URL loop detection. An attacker who controls a remote ActivityPub key or actor URL can force a server using Fedify to make repeated outbound requests from a single inbound request, leading to resource consumption and denial of service. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.9.6, 1.10.5, 2.0.8, and 2.1.1.
