Description
Mooncake transfer engine before 0.3.12 contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the readString function of include/common.h that allows unauthenticated attackers to crash the service by sending a zero-length handshake frame. Attackers can connect to the handshake port listening on all interfaces and send an eight-byte frame to terminate the hosting process, such as an SGLang inference server.
Detection & mitigation playbook
VulnerabilityDetect
Identify every host running the affected component and compare the installed build against the fixed version below — for source-built or distro-packaged software the version string, not a lockfile, is the source of truth (`dpkg -l`, `rpm -q`, or the binary's own `--version`).
Remediation status
No fixed release is recorded for CVE-2026-104433 yet. Track the upstream advisory, and apply the exposure-reduction steps below in the meantime.
Mitigate without a patch
Constrain what reaches the vulnerable code: limit the size and shape of untrusted input, isolate the affected component in a sandboxed or least-privileged process, and enable the platform's memory-safety mitigations (ASLR, stack protector, hardened allocator) so an out-of-bounds access is more likely to fail closed than to be exploitable.
