OPC UA Gateway Denial of Service via Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

Nozomi Networks Labs identified a CWE-400: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability in the OPC UA gateway component of Advantech EKI-1242EIMS in firmware version V1.06.01 that allows an adjacent unauthenticated attacker to exhaust the server session pool and cause a complete denial of service to all legitimate OPC UA clients by opening multiple anonymous sessions.

Apache MyFaces: Denial of Service via Unbounded Request Parsing

A remote attacker could cause excessive resource consumption by supplying specially crafted request parameters, potentially resulting in a denial of service condition. Older unsupported versions may also be affected. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 2.3.12, 2.3-next-M9, 3.0.4, 4.0.4, or 4.1.4, which fix this issue.

Nodemailer before 9.1.0 Denial of Service via addressparser

Nodemailer before 9.1.0 contains a quadratic time complexity vulnerability in the addressparser component that allows remote attackers to cause denial of service by supplying a crafted comma-separated address list. Attackers can send a single email with a large number of addresses to block the Node.js event loop for extended periods, consuming 100% CPU and freezing the process.

OpenTelemetry-Go: BatchProcessor can busy-spin when export buffer is full

OpenTelemetry-Go is the Go implementation of OpenTelemetry. Prior to version 0.21.0, the go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/log BatchingProcessor can enter a tight CPU loop when attacker-driven log emission fills its asynchronous export buffer while the exporter is backpressured. NewBatchingProcessor wraps the exporter with newBufferExporter(exporter, 1), and the poll loop calls queue.TryDequeue and bufferExporter.EnqueueExport before immediately signaling pollTrigger whenever the queue remains at or above batchSize. Because a failed nonblocking EnqueueExport leaves the queue length unchanged, the processor repeatedly retries without waiting for its ticker, exhausting CPU and degrading or denying service in the embedding process. This issue is fixed in version 0.21.0.

OpenTelemetry-Go: UTF-8 replacement rune bypasses attribute length truncation

OpenTelemetry-Go is the Go implementation of OpenTelemetry. From version 1.10.0 until 1.33.0, the sdk/trace/span.go attribute truncation path can fail to enforce AttributeValueLengthLimit for string and string-slice attributes containing the valid Unicode replacement character U+FFFD. safeTruncateValidUTF8 treats the valid replacement rune as invalid UTF-8 and returns the original input, while strings.ToValidUTF8 leaves that valid rune unchanged, so a second safeTruncate attempt can also return the oversized value. An attacker who controls span attribute content can retain values longer than the configured limit, increasing per-span memory use and weakening denial-of-service protection in the instrumented process. This issue is fixed in version 1.33.0.

Soup Sieve: Polynomial-time ReDoS (O(n²)) in the `IDENTIFIER` / `VALUE` selector sub-patterns

Soup Sieve is a CSS selector library designed to be used with Beautiful Soup 4. Prior to 2.9, the selector parser in src/soupsieve/css_parser.py defines IDENTIFIER with adjacent quantified groups over overlapping character classes, and VALUE embeds IDENTIFIER for attribute selectors. When an attacker-controlled selector contains a long identifier or unquoted attribute-value run followed by input that makes the overall match fail, the regular expression engine explores quadratically many splits between the overlapping groups. User-controlled selectors can reach this path through soupsieve.compile(), soupsieve.select(), or BeautifulSoup.select(), while applications using only hard-coded selectors are unaffected. The resulting CPU consumption can hold the Python GIL, exhaust application workers, and stall a service; successful plain identifier matches are linear, and the issue does not cause memory corruption or code execution. The issue is fixed in version 2.9.

Vikunja before 2.6.0 Denial of Service via Decompression Bomb

Vikunja before 2.6.0 fails to limit archive expansion during data import, allowing authenticated users to cause denial of service. Attackers can upload highly compressed files that expand to tens of gigabytes in memory and disk, exhausting server resources and crashing the instance.

vikunja before 2.6.0 Resource Exhaustion via CSV Migration

vikunja versions before 2.6.0 contain a resource exhaustion vulnerability in the POST /api/v2/migration/csv/migrate endpoint that fails to limit parsed row cardinality. Authenticated attackers can upload multipart CSV files with millions of tiny records to exhaust process memory and terminate the API service.

mcp-searxng: Unbounded Response Body Read Bypasses URL Size Limit in `web_url_read`

mcp-searxng is a Model Context Protocol server that gives AI assistants web search and URL-reading capabilities through SearXNG. Prior to 1.7.1, web_url_read in src/index.ts passes a caller-supplied URL to readUrlContent() in src/url-reader.ts, where checkContentLength() treats a missing Content-Length header as an inconclusive preflight and the normal and error paths then consume the complete body with response.text(). A server that omits Content-Length can therefore bypass URL_READ_MAX_CONTENT_LENGTH_BYTES and force unbounded memory use. The resulting string is also processed by NodeHtmlMarkdown.translate(), increasing CPU consumption and allowing an unauthenticated HTTP client to cause denial of service. This issue is fixed in version 1.7.1.

Http4s Ember HTTP/2: unbounded outbound frame queue

Http4s is a Scala interface for HTTP services. Prior to 0.23.35 and 1.0.0-M47, Ember HTTP/2 serializes outbound frames through one unbounded queue consumed by writeLoop. When the peer stops reading, an unauthenticated HTTP/2 client can continue sending PING, SETTINGS, or DATA frames that cause Ember to enqueue acknowledgments or WINDOW_UPDATE frames faster than the writer drains them, exhausting heap memory on a server built with withHttp2. The shared behavior also affects an ember-client connected to a hostile HTTP/2 server, and the patch replaces the unbounded path with bounded, backpressured outbound queues. This issue is fixed in versions 0.23.35 and 1.0.0-M47.

Http4s: DigestAuth nonce map grows unbounded

Http4s is a Scala interface for HTTP services. Prior to 0.23.35 and 1.0.0-M47, the DigestAuth server middleware removes fresh nonces and stops eviction at the first stale nonce because its stale-nonce comparison is inverted. On an application that protects at least one route with DigestAuth, an unauthenticated attacker can repeatedly trigger authentication challenges, causing the persistent nonce map to grow until the JVM exhausts heap memory. This issue is fixed in versions 0.23.35 and 1.0.0-M47.

vgmstream mus_acm.c parse_mus resource consumption

A security flaw has been discovered in vgmstream up to r2117. This issue affects the function parse_mus of the file src/meta/mus_acm.c. The manipulation results in resource consumption. The attack may be launched remotely. The patch is identified as ae37662ad626254ddd96ad69ac263792d7a92024. Applying a patch is advised to resolve this issue.

The Mirai botnet through 2024-08-19 mishandles simultaneous TCP connections to the CNC (command and control) server. Unauthenticated sessions remain open, causing resource consumption. For example, an attacker can send a recognized username (such as root), or can send arbitrary data.

Suricata nfs: unbounded stateful structures can lead to resource exhaustion

Suricata is a network Intrusion Detection System, Intrusion Prevention System and Network Security Monitoring engine. Prior to versions 7.0.16 and 8.0.5, certain NFS parser state structures were insufficiently bounded. Crafted NFS traffic may cause Suricata to consume excessive memory, potentially resulting in denial of service. Versions 7.0.16 and 8.0.5 contain a fix. As a workaround, disable NFS application-layer parsing if it is not needed.

Suricata dnp3: unbounded reassembly can lead to resource exhaustion

Suricata is a network Intrusion Detection System, Intrusion Prevention System and Network Security Monitoring engine. Prior to versions 7.0.16 and 8.0.5, DNP3 reassembly could buffer data without sufficient parser-level bounds. Crafted DNP3 traffic may cause Suricata to consume excessive memory, potentially resulting in denial of service. Versions 7.0.16 and 8.0.5 contain a fix. As a workaround, disable DNP3 (which is not enabled by default) if it is not needed, and/or define a limited `stream.reassembly.depth` (0 or absent is unlimited).

ag-ui-protocol ag-ui SSE Client client.go resource consumption

A security vulnerability has been detected in ag-ui-protocol ag-ui 1.0. This affects an unknown function of the file sdks/community/go/pkg/client/sse/client.go of the component SSE Client. Such manipulation leads to resource consumption. The attack can be executed remotely. The pull request to fix this issue awaits acceptance.

vllm-project vLLM MoRIIO Acknowledgement moriio_connector.py MoRIIOWrapper._handle_release_message resource consumption

A vulnerability was found in vllm-project vLLM 0.26.0/0.27.0. Affected is the function MoRIIOConnectorScheduler.request_finished/MoRIIOConnectorWorker.get_finished/MoRIIOWrapper._handle_release_message of the file vllm/distributed/kv_transfer/kv_connector/v1/moriio/moriio_connector.py of the component MoRIIO Acknowledgement Handler. Performing a manipulation of the argument request_id/kv_transfer_params results in resource consumption. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The project was informed of the problem early through a pull request but has not reacted yet.

Suricata http1: quadratic Content-Disposition processing can lead to denial of service

Suricata is a network Intrusion Detection System, Intrusion Prevention System and Network Security Monitoring engine. Prior to versions 7.0.16 and 8.0.5, Suricata could repeatedly perform expensive parsing of large HTTP `Content-Disposition` headers during HTTP response body processing. Crafted HTTP traffic could cause excessive CPU usage and denial of service. Versions 7.0.16 and 8.0.5 contain a fix. As a workaround, use a rule like `alert http1 any any -> any any (sid: 1; http.request_header; content: "Content-Disposition:"; startswith; bsize: > 8192; bypass;)`.
