CVE-2026-45287 – OpenTelemetry-Go’s Schema ParseFile leaks file descriptors on each parse

CVE ID :CVE-2026-45287

Published : June 4, 2026, 4:16 p.m. | 16 minutes ago

Description :OpenTelemetry-Go is the Go implementation of OpenTelemetry. Prior to version 0.0.17, `go.opentelemetry.io/otel/schema/v1.0` and `go.opentelemetry.io/otel/schema/v1.1` leaks one file descriptor on each successful `ParseFile` call. `ParseFile` opens the schema file and passes it to `Parse` without closing it; repeated parsing in a long-running process can exhaust the process file descriptor limit and cause denial of service. Exploitation depends on a consuming application exposing repeated schema parsing to an attacker-controlled path. Version 0.0.17 contains a patch for the issue.

Severity: 2.1 | LOW
