Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for opentelemetry-cpp.

CVE-2026-44967[0]:
| OpenTelemetry-cpp is the C++ implementation of OpenTelemetry. Prior
| to release 1.27.0, the OTLP HTTP exporters (traces/metrics/logs)
| read the full HTTP response into an in-memory vector of bytes
| without a size cap. This is exploitable for memory exhaustion when
| the configured collector endpoint is attacker-controlled (or a
| network attacker can MITM the exporter connection). This
| vulnerability is fixed in opentelemetry-cpp release 1.27.0.
