Internationalized Domain Names in Applications (IDNA): Specially crafted inputs to idna.encode() can bypass CVE-2024-3651 fix

CVE-2026-45409 / GHSA-65pc-fj4g-8rjx

More information

Details

This is the same issue as CVE-2024-3651, however the original remediation in 2024 was not a complete fix. Payloads such as "\u0660" * N or "\u30fb" * N + "\u6f22" utilize the valid_contexto function prior to length rejection, and for high values of N will take a long time to process.

Impact

A specially crafted argument to the idna.encode() function could consume significant resources. This may lead to a denial-of-service.

Patches

Starting in version 3.14, the function rejects long inputs as soon as practicable prior to any further processing to minimize resource consumption. In version 3.15, this approach was extended to lesser used alternate functions (i.e. per-label conversions and codec support).

Workarounds

Domain names cannot exceed 253 characters in length, if this length limit is enforced prior to passing the domain to the idna.encode() function it should no longer consume significant resources. This is triggered by arbitrarily large inputs that would not occur in normal usage, but may be passed to the library assuming there is no preliminary input validation by the higher-level application.

Severity

  • CVSS Score: 6.9 / 10 (Medium)
  • Vector String: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N

Release Notes

kjd/idna (idna)

v3.15

Compare Source

  • Enforce DNS-length cap on individual labels early in check_label,
    short-circuiting contextual-rule processing for oversized input
    while staying compatible with UTS 46 usage.
  • Tidy core helpers: hoist bidi category sets to module-level
    frozensets (avoiding per-codepoint list construction), simplify
    length checks, and reuse the shared _unicode_dots_re from
    idna.core in the codec module.
  • Use raise ... from err for proper exception chaining and
    switch internal string formatting to f-strings.
  • Allow flit_core 4.x in the build backend.
  • Expand the ruff lint set (flake8-bugbear, flake8-simplify,
    pyupgrade, perflint) and apply the surfaced fixes; pin lint CI
    to Python 3.14.
  • Add Dependabot configuration for GitHub Actions.
  • Convert README and HISTORY from reStructuredText to Markdown.
  • Reference CVE-2026-45409 for the 3.14 advisory in place of the
    initial GHSA identifier.
