PocketMine-MP versions prior to 4.12.3 are vulnerable to session exhaustion attacks due to inadequate limits on unauthenticated sessions, enabling attackers to create multiple connections without authentication. This can lead to denial of service, as the server's player slots become occupied, blocking legitimate users from accessing the game. Server administrators and operators should prioritize this vulnerability to ensure availability for legitimate players.
