CVE-2026-105830

Status: Awaiting AnalysisHigh (8.7)—

league/commonmark from 2.0.0 before 2.10.2 contains a quadratic-time denial of service vulnerability in the GitHub Flavored Markdown Table extension's TableStartParser::tryStart() block-start scan. Unauthenticated attackers can submit a large paragraph of pipe-free lines not starting with letters, forcing repeated full-buffer strpos scans that exhaust PHP worker CPU.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
