CVE-2026-54638

high

Description

gotd/td is a T Telegram MTProto API client in Go. Prior to 0.145.1, proto.UnencryptedMessage.Decode in proto/unencrypted_message.go read attacker controlled dataLen from an unauthenticated MTProto unencrypted packet and allocated make([]byte, dataLen) before checking the remaining buffer, allowing remote unauthenticated denial of service through excessive memory allocation and CPU or garbage collection pressure. This issue is fixed in version 0.145.1.
