Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

PocketMine-MP (Packagist package pocketmine/pocketmine-mp) is vulnerable in versions before 5.44.2. During the resource pack stage of login, a malicious client can send a batch of repeated resource pack completion responses, causing the server to repeat pre-spawn processing. This can create multiple Player objects for one session, increasing memory use and duplicating large outbound packets. Upgrade to 5.44.2, which contains the fix; plugins can alternatively ignore extra resource pack responses.
