Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for node-proxy-agents.

CVE-2026-44240[0]:
| basic-ftp is an FTP client for Node.js. Prior to 5.3.1, basic-ftp is
| vulnerable to client-side denial of service when parsing FTP
| control-channel multiline responses. A malicious or compromised FTP
| server can send an unterminated multiline response during the
| initial FTP banner phase, before authentication. The client keeps
| appending attacker-controlled data into FtpContext._partialResponse
| and repeatedly reparses the accumulated buffer without enforcing a
| maximum control response size. As a result, an application using
| basic-ftp can remain stuck in connect() while memory and CPU usage
| grow under attacker-controlled input. This can lead to process-level
| denial of service, container OOM kills, worker restarts, queue
| backlog, or service degradation in applications that automatically
| connect to FTP endpoints. This vulnerability is fixed in 5.3.1.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
