2) Resource exhaustion

EUVDB-ID: #VU29544

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 5.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-14422

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to application improperly computes hash values in the IPv4Interface and IPv6Interface classes within the Lib/ipaddress.py in Python. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack if an application is affected by the performance of a dictionary containing IPv4Interface or IPv6Interface objects, and this attacker can cause many dictionary entries to be created.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.
