PocketMine-MP: Improper Validation of Specified Quantity in Input
CVE-2023-7332 is a high-severity improper validation of specified quantity in input vulnerability in PocketMine-MP from Pmmp, with a CVSS 4.0 base score of 7.1 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an attacker with a low-privileged account, without any action from a user. The record lists version 4.18.1 as the first without the flaw, so updating PocketMine-MP to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.4% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.

Official description
PocketMine-MP versions prior to 4.18.1 contain an improper input validation vulnerability in inventory transaction handling. A remote attacker with a valid player session can request that the server drop more items than are available in the player's hotbar, triggering a server crash and resulting in denial of service.
