+Subject: [PATCH] message: Avoid memory leak if string buffer for message is
+ too small
+
+This leaked 40 or 80 bytes per parsed message for the enumerators that
+were not destroyed.  While triggering an OOM condition will require quite
+a lot of messages and the DoS protection also helps avoiding that this
+is triggered quickly, it all depends on the memory constraints of the
+system and the time available to the attacker.  Also, if IKEv1 is allowed,
+it could get quicker as the lack of message IDs doesn't allow dismissing
+unexpected messages before parsing them.
+
+Fixes: 092958c89d52 ("fixed payload debug message")
+Fixes: 6a4a47511f75 ("Show contents of the CP payload in message_t stringification")
+Fixes: CVE-2026-78127
+
+CVE: CVE-2026-78127
+Upstream-Status: Backport [https://github.com/strongiswan/strongswan/commit/4b7108ac0f84fbf40da2b510eb6333afa2a54240]
