CVE-2026-11941
CVSS v3.1
5.6

| Vector | AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L |
Cloudflare Quiche was affected by 2 use-after-free vulnerabilities in the connection ID iterator FFI functions.
The “quiche connection id iter next” and “quiche conn retired scid next” functions would return a pointer to a “ConnectionId” to the applications via function arguments, but the owned “ConnectionId” would be dropped at the end of those functions' scope.
Only applications using those FFI functions are affected. The FFI API is disabled by default by a build-time feature flag.
Impact
If unpatched, an application calling the affected FFI functions will dereference freed memory. The most likely outcome is undefined behavior leading to a process crash (denial of service). Depending on allocator state, the read may also return adjacent heap contents, resulting in limited information disclosure or incorrect connection identifier handling.
Mitigation
Users are requested to upgrade to quiche 0.29.2 which is the earliest version containing the fix for this issue.
