ASP.NET Core Denial of Service Vulnerability

Uncontrolled resource consumption in ASP.NET Core allows an unauthorized attacker to deny service over a network.

SSH SFTP server denial of service via extended channel data infinite loop

Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop') vulnerability in Erlang OTP ssh (ssh_sftpd module) allows an authenticated SFTP user to render an SFTP channel permanently unresponsive. The handle_data/4 function in ssh_sftpd contains a catch-all clause that accepts channel data of any type. When channel data with a non-zero type code (SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_EXTENDED_DATA) arrives with an empty pending buffer and a payload at or below the SFTP packet size limit, the clause tail-calls itself with identical arguments, creating an infinite loop. The SFTP protocol operates exclusively on normal channel data (type 0). Extended data (non-zero type) is meaningless for SFTP and is never sent by conforming clients. However, the SSH protocol permits any channel participant to send extended data on an open channel, so an authenticated SFTP client can trigger the loop by sending SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_EXTENDED_DATA with any data_type_code and any non-empty payload at or below the size limit. The targeted ssh_sftpd process enters an infinite tail-recursive loop. It never processes another message, its message queue grows without bound, and it can only be stopped by killing the process. BEAM's reduction-based scheduler preemption continues to function, so other processes on the node are not starved, but each stuck channel process consumes its full CPU time share continuously and accumulates unbounded message queue memory. Opening many channels amplifies the CPU and memory impact. Erlang/OTP SSH configurations using the default max_channels setting (infinity) allow an authenticated user to open unlimited channels per connection, amplifying the attack without requiring multiple TCP connections or authentications. No file contents, credentials, or write access are obtainable through this issue. The impact is limited to denial of service on targeted SFTP channels, with secondary CPU degradation and memory growth. This vulnerability is associated with program file lib/ssh/src/ssh_sftpd.erl and program routine ssh_sftpd:handle_data/4. This issue affects OTP from OTP 17.0 before OTP 27.3.4.14, OTP 28.5.0.3, and OTP 29.0.3, corresponding to ssh from 3.0.1 before 5.2.11.9, 5.5.2.2, and 6.0.2. Whether OTP before OTP 17.0, corresponding to ssh before 3.0.1, is affected is unknown.

JSON-java: JSONTokener Unbounded Numeric String Resource-Exhaustion DoS

JSON-java is a reference implementation of a JSON package in Java. From version 20150729 through 20260522, JSONTokener.nextSimpleValue can accumulate unbounded numeric tokens before JSONObject.stringToNumber passes them to BigInteger or BigDecimal conversion without a length limit. An application that parses attacker-controlled JSON or XML through JSONObject, JSONArray, or XML.toJSONObject can spend super-linear CPU time converting a sufficiently long numeric literal, blocking request-handling threads and causing denial of service. Strict mode and keep-strings settings in JSONParserConfiguration do not prevent the affected conversion path. Version 20260719 limits numeric conversion length.

Windows Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS) Denial of Service Vulnerability

Uncontrolled resource consumption in Windows Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS) allows an authorized attacker to deny service over a network.

Denial of Service via Malicious Subtitle in libass 0.17.5

An issue in libass v.0.17.5 allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via the ass_outline_construct() in libass/ass_render.c

Hickory DNS before 0.26.2 Denial of Service via Missing DNS-over-QUIC Request Read Timeout

The DNS-over-QUIC (DoQ) server in hickory-server (hickory-dns) before 0.26.2 does not apply any timeout when reading a request message from a QUIC stream, bypassing all configured timeouts. A remote unauthenticated client can open a connection and a request stream and hold it open indefinitely, consuming server resources and causing a denial of service.

Hickory DNS 0.25.0 before 0.26.2 Query Amplification via Irrelevant CNAME Records

The hickory-resolver component of Hickory DNS 0.25.0 before 0.26.2 follows irrelevant CNAME records when resolving recursive queries, sending queries that are unnecessary to answer the original request. Attackers controlling DNS responses can include CNAME records in the authority or additional sections, or outside the original query name's CNAME chain, causing excess resolver queries and increased query amplification.

Kyverno before 1.19.2 Denial of Service via Unbounded CEL Policy Evaluation Cost

Kyverno before 1.19.2 contains a denial of service vulnerability that allows namespace-scoped policy authors to exhaust CPU and memory by submitting CEL expressions evaluated without runtime cost limits. Attackers can create a NamespacedValidatingPolicy or NamespacedDeletingPolicy with nested map comprehensions over large ConfigMap fields to OOM-kill Kyverno pods and block cluster-wide admission.

Nuxt Content: Unauthenticated SQLite Function DoS via Content Query API

Nuxt Content is the file-based CMS for Nuxt applications, powered by Markdown and Vue components. From 3.0.0 until 3.15.2, the unauthenticated POST /__nuxt_content/:collection/query endpoint accepts an attacker-controlled sql field in src/runtime/api/query.post.ts and permits expensive SQLite expressions. Version 3.0.0 performed no query validation; in affected releases using assertSafeQuery in src/runtime/internal/security.ts, the reported validation gap rejects a short list of SQL command keywords in WHERE clauses but permits function calls including randomblob(), zeroblob(), hex(), and length(). The query reaches the synchronous better-sqlite3 sink in src/runtime/internal/database.server.ts, allowing a single remote request to consume substantial CPU and memory while blocking the Node.js event loop and all concurrent request handling. Fully static prerendered deployments that do not expose the server endpoint are not affected. This issue is fixed in version 3.15.2.

Forge: Regular expression denial of service in PEM decoding (pem.decode)

Forge (also called node-forge) is a native implementation of Transport Layer Security in JavaScript. Prior to 1.4.1, the affected implementation used pem.decode(), lib/pem.js, missing END line to process the relevant input or security decision. node-forge used polynomial-time regular expressions in pem.decode(), including when searching for a matching END line and parsing encapsulated headers. An unauthenticated attacker able to supply PEM input to any high-level parser could consume excessive CPU with a long malformed message and cause denial of service. This issue is fixed in version 1.4.1.

101arrowz fflate index.mjs unzipSync memory allocation

A weakness has been identified in 101arrowz fflate up to 0.8.3. This issue affects the function unzipSync of the file esm/index.mjs. This manipulation causes uncontrolled memory allocation. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. It is suggested to update the configuration settings. The maintainer disputes this issue as a vulnerability. The library is a pure JavaScript decompressor that allocates memory proportional to the decompressed payload size, which is expected behavior. Excessive allocations simply throw a standard JavaScript RangeError or reach engine heap limits. Furthermore, because a low-level decompression library cannot distinguish between a maliciously crafted compression bomb and a legitimate file with a high compression ratio, the API explicitly provides a filter option allowing callers to restrict decompressed file sizes and prevent denial-of-service according to their application's requirements, as seen both in the documentation and noted in the reported issue.

Multiple vulnerabilities previously addressed in IBM SevOne Network Performance Management

IBM SevOne Network Performance Management 7.0.0 through 8.2.2 could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service due to uncontrolled resource consumption.

Devalue before 5.9.3 Quadratic Expansion Denial of Service via uneval

Sveltejs devalue before 5.9.3 contains a resource exhaustion vulnerability where repeated primitive strings cause quadratic expansion in the uneval function. Attackers can supply a small crafted payload that is parsed and then passed to uneval, producing a very large serialized string that exhausts memory or CPU.

Vikunja before 2.7.1 Memory Exhaustion DoS via Unbounded Image Decodes

Vikunja before 2.7.1 contains an uncontrolled resource consumption vulnerability that allows authenticated users to exhaust server memory through concurrent image decodes in avatar and background uploads. Attackers can send several parallel tiny, highly compressible PNGs decoded at up to 50 megapixels each, pushing the API process into memory pressure or an OOM kill.

Apache OFBiz: Denial of Service via unauthenticated userTenantId in multitenant mode

In multitenant deployments, ContextFilter and LoginWorker built a per-tenant delegator name from a request-supplied userTenantId parameter and requested a delegator for it before confirming the tenant existed. DelegatorFactory's internal cache retains every delegator name it is asked to resolve, including ones that fail to resolve, so an unauthenticated attacker could submit a stream of arbitrary tenant IDs to grow this cache without bound, driving unnecessary memory and database load.

In Eclipse Kura version 5.0.0 to 5.6.2, the Web Console allocates a new HTTP session for every request to its built-in authentication endpoints (/admin/auth, /admin/login/password, /admin/login/cert) before checking the HTTP method, parsing the request, or validating any submitted credentials, and does not limit how many such sessions can be allocated. An unauthenticated client that sends requests to these endpoints without honoring the returned session cookie can cause the server to allocate an unbounded number of sessions, exhausting the JVM heap and crashing the Kura process.

Multiple Vulnerabilities in IBM API Connect

IBM API Connect 10.0.8.0 through 10.0.8.12 and 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 could allow a remote authenticated attacker to cause a denial of service due to uncontrolled resource consumption. Certain requests can cause internal processing to stall, which could make the service unavailable.
