Description
Impact
When establishing a TLS session using fs2-io on the JVM using the fs2.io.net.tls package, if one side of the connection shuts down write while the peer side is awaiting more data to progress the TLS handshake, the peer side will spin loop on the socket read, fully utilizing a CPU. This CPU is consumed until the overall connection is closed.
This could be used as a denial of service attack on an fs2-io powered server -- for example, by opening many connections and putting them in a half-shutdown state.
Note: this issue impacts ember backed http4s servers with HTTPS as a result of ember using fs2's TLS support.
Patches
Fixed in fs2 3.12.2 and 3.13.0-M7.
Workarounds
No workarounds.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for co.fs2:fs2-io_2.12, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update co.fs2:fs2-io_2.12 to 3.12.2 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2025-58369 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
Cap what an attacker can consume: apply request size, rate and timeout limits in front of the affected component, and run it with memory and CPU limits so exhaustion degrades one worker rather than the whole service.
