CVE-2026-89295: Eclipse Mnestix AAS Generator unbounded memory allocation in ID generation endpoint

CVE-2026-89295 · Severity: info · Published 2026-11-03

Eclipse Mnestix AAS Generator is a component that generates identifiers for Asset Administration Shell (AAS) models used in industrial automation systems. An unauthenticated attacker can send a specially crafted request with an extremely large number to the ID generation endpoint, forcing the service to allocate massive amounts of memory and crash, rendering the system unavailable to legitimate users.

Vendors: Eclipse.

Technical details

The GET /api/v1/IdGenerator/submodelIds/{count} and /api/v2/IdGenerator/submodelIds/{count} endpoints accept an unbounded unsigned integer count parameter without validation, then allocate a list of that many GUID strings in memory before returning. The authentication handler unconditionally grants admin.write scope to all GET requests without credential verification. An attacker can submit count=4294967295 or similar to trigger out-of-memory conditions, causing denial of service.

Affected products

  • Eclipse Mnestix AAS Generator 0.1.0 up to but excluding 1.5.0
