Memory exhaustion in multipart form parsing in net/textproto and net/http

When parsing a multipart form (either explicitly with Request.ParseMultipartForm or implicitly with Request.FormValue, Request.PostFormValue, or Request.FormFile), limits on the total size of the parsed form were not applied to the memory consumed while reading a single form line. This permits a maliciously crafted input containing very long lines to cause allocation of arbitrarily large amounts of memory, potentially leading to memory exhaustion. With fix, the ParseMultipartForm function now correctly limits the maximum size of form lines.

Memory Exhaustion in Expr Parser with Unrestricted Input

Expr is an expression language and expression evaluation for Go. Prior to version 1.17.0, if the Expr expression parser is given an unbounded input string, it will attempt to compile the entire string and generate an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) node for each part of the expression. In scenarios where input size isn’t limited, a malicious or inadvertent extremely large expression can consume excessive memory as the parser builds a huge AST. This can ultimately lead to*excessive memory usage and an Out-Of-Memory (OOM) crash of the process. This issue is relatively uncommon and will only manifest when there are no restrictions on the input size, i.e. the expression length is allowed to grow arbitrarily large. In typical use cases where inputs are bounded or validated, this problem would not occur. The problem has been patched in the latest versions of the Expr library. The fix introduces compile-time limits on the number of AST nodes and memory usage during parsing, preventing any single expression from exhausting resources. Users should upgrade to Expr version 1.17.0 or later, as this release includes the new node budget and memory limit safeguards. Upgrading to v1.17.0 ensures that extremely deep or large expressions are detected and safely aborted during compilation, avoiding the OOM condition. For users who cannot immediately upgrade, the recommended workaround is to impose an input size restriction before parsing. In practice, this means validating or limiting the length of expression strings that your application will accept. For example, set a maximum allowable number of characters (or nodes) for any expression and reject or truncate inputs that exceed this limit. By ensuring no unbounded-length expression is ever fed into the parser, one can prevent the parser from constructing a pathologically large AST and avoid potential memory exhaustion. In short, pre-validate and cap input size as a safeguard in the absence of the patch.

HTTP Service DoS Vulnerability

An unauthenticated remote attacker can cause a Denial of Service by sending a large number of requests to the http service on port 80.

Net::IMAP vulnerable to possible DoS by memory exhaustion

Net::IMAP implements Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) client functionality in Ruby. Starting in version 0.3.2 and prior to versions 0.3.8, 0.4.19, and 0.5.6, there is a possibility for denial of service by memory exhaustion in `net-imap`'s response parser. At any time while the client is connected, a malicious server can send can send highly compressed `uid-set` data which is automatically read by the client's receiver thread. The response parser uses `Range#to_a` to convert the `uid-set` data into arrays of integers, with no limitation on the expanded size of the ranges. Versions 0.3.8, 0.4.19, 0.5.6, and higher fix this issue. Additional details for proper configuration of fixed versions and backward compatibility are available in the GitHub Security Advisory.

WAGO: Denial of service in 750-8xx controller due to uncontrolled resource consumption

An unauthenticated remote attacker can cause a DoS in the controller due to uncontrolled resource consumption.

File Station 5

An allocation of resources without limits or throttling vulnerability has been reported to affect File Station 5. If a remote attacker gains a user account, they can then exploit the vulnerability to prevent other systems, applications, or processes from accessing the same type of resource. We have already fixed the vulnerability in the following version: File Station 5 5.5.6.4847 and later

Starlette has possible denial-of-service vector when parsing large files in multipart forms

Starlette is a lightweight ASGI (Asynchronous Server Gateway Interface) framework/toolkit, designed for building async web services in Python. In versions 0.47.1 and below, when parsing a multi-part form with large files (greater than the default max spool size) starlette will block the main thread to roll the file over to disk. This blocks the event thread which means the application can't accept new connections. The UploadFile code has a minor bug where instead of just checking for self._in_memory, the logic should also check if the additional bytes will cause a rollover. The vulnerability is fixed in version 0.47.2.

Extreme Networks Aerohive HiveOS <=11.x 11.x Unauthenticated Remote Denial of Service

Aerohive HiveOS contains a denial of service vulnerability in the NetConfig UI that allows unauthenticated attackers to render the web interface unusable. Attackers can send a crafted HTTP request to the action.php5 script with specific parameters to trigger a 5-minute service disruption.

The Yealink RPS API before 2025-05-26 lacks rate limiting, potentially enabling information disclosure via excessive requests.

Incus vulnerable to DoS through antispoofing nftables firewall rule bypass on bridge networks with ACLs

Incus is a system container and virtual machine manager. When using an ACL on a device connected to a bridge, Incus version 6.12 and 6.13 generates nftables rules for local services (DHCP, DNS...) that partially bypass security options `security.mac_filtering`, `security.ipv4_filtering` and `security.ipv6_filtering`. This can lead to DHCP pool exhaustion and opens the door for other attacks. A patch is available at commit 2516fb19ad8428454cb4edfe70c0a5f0dc1da214.

aSc TimeTables 2021.6.2 - Denial of Service

aSc TimeTables 2021.6.2 contains a denial of service vulnerability that allows attackers to crash the application by overwriting subject title fields with excessive data. Attackers can generate a 10,000-character buffer and paste it into the subject title to trigger application instability and potential crash.

Kubevirt: kubevirt: vm administration denial of service via guest agent

A flaw was found in kubevirt. A user within a virtual machine (VM), if the guest agent is active, can exploit this by causing the agent to report an excessive number of network interfaces. This action can overwhelm the system's ability to store VM configuration updates, effectively blocking changes to the Virtual Machine Instance (VMI). This allows the VM user to restrict the VM administrator's ability to manage the VM, leading to a denial of service for administrative operations.

Letmein connection limiter allows an arbitrary amount of simultaneous connections

Letmein is an authenticating port knocker. Prior to version 10.2.1, The connection limiter is implemented incorrectly. It allows an arbitrary amount of simultaneously incoming connections (TCP, UDP and Unix socket) for the services letmeind and letmeinfwd. Therefore, the command line option num-connections is not effective and does not limit the number of simultaneously incoming connections. This issue has been patched in version 10.2.1.

Güralp Systems Fortimus Series, Minimus Series, and Certimus Series have an Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling vulnerability

A vulnerability in the web interface of the Güralp Fortimus Series, Minimus Series and Certimus Series allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access to send specially-crafted HTTP requests that can cause the web service process to deliberately restart. Although this mechanism limits the impact of the attack, it results in a brief denial-of-service condition during the restart.

NeKernal Multiple Memory Corruption Vulnerabilities in mkfs.hefs

NeKernal is a free and open-source operating system stack. Prior to version 0.0.3, there are several memory safety issues that can lead to memory corruption, disk image corruption, denial of service, and potential code execution. These issues stem from unchecked memory operations, unsafe typecasting, and improper input validation. This issue has been patched in version 0.0.3.

Pion Interceptor's improper RTP padding handling allows remote crash for SFU users (DoS)

Pion Interceptor is a framework for building RTP/RTCP communication software. Versions v0.1.36 through v0.1.38 contain a bug in a RTP packet factory that can be exploited to trigger a panic with Pion based SFU via crafted RTP packets, This only affect users that use pion/interceptor. Users should upgrade to v0.1.39 or later, which validates that: `padLen > 0 && padLen <= payloadLength` and return error on overflow, avoiding panic. If upgrading is not possible, apply the patch from the pull request manually or drop packets whose P-bit is set but whose padLen is zero or larger than the remaining payload.

Improper system call parameter validation in the Trusted OS may allow a malicious driver to perform mapping or unmapping operations on a large number of pages, potentially resulting in kernel memory corruption.

Vulnerability on Automation Runtime my cause DoS Conditions

An Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling vulnerability in the ANSL-Server component of B&R Automation Runtime versions prior to 6.5 and prior to R4.93 could be exploited by an unauthenti-cated attacker on the network to win a race condition, resulting in permanent denial-of-service (DoS) conditions on affected devices.

CWE-770: Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling vulnerability exists that could cause communications to stop when malicious packets are sent to the webserver of the device.

Denial of Service (DoS) via Multipart Boundary in stangirard/quivr

A Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability in the file upload feature of stangirard/quivr v0.0.298 allows unauthenticated attackers to cause excessive resource consumption by appending characters to the end of a multipart boundary in an HTTP request. This leads to the server continuously processing each character, rendering the service unavailable and impacting all users.
