Netatalk Security Advisory

Subject ASP session ID out-of-bounds access
CVE ID# CVE-2026-44064
Severity High
Disclosure Date 2026/05/13
Affected Versions 1.3 - 4.4.2
Summary An attacker-controlled ASP session ID is used as an array index without validating it against the session table size

Description

Legacy ASP/DDP session handling can use an attacker-controlled session identifier without adequate validation. When ASP/DDP support is built and enabled, an unauthenticated network attacker may be able to crash the service; reliable code execution is less certain.

Patch Availability

Apply CVE-2026-44064.patch to a Netatalk 4.4.2 source tree to hotfix your local Netatalk deployment.

Alternatively, upgrade to Netatalk 4.4.3 or later, which includes the patch.

Netatalk administrators are advised to upgrade to this version or apply the patch as soon as possible.

CVSS Calculation

CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:H (7.1)

Workaround

Restrict legacy AppleTalk access to trusted networks until patched, or disable ASP/DDP support if not needed.
