Status: Awaiting AnalysisMedium (5.9)—
It is possible for outbound HTTP requests using a Micrometer-instrumented client to cause a denial-of-service (DoS) condition due to an unbounded memory leak. Micrometer 1.17.0 Micrometer 1.16.0 - 1.16.6 Micrometer 1.15.0 - 1.15.12 Micrometer 1.14.0 - 1.14.16 Micrometer 1.9.18 and earlier
CVSS
- Version: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
- Base score: 5.9
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.37%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 28
- Score date: 10/6/2026
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).
