Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains one medium risk vulnerability.
1) Uncontrolled Recursion
EUVDB-ID: #VU97574
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 6.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2024-7254
CWE-ID:
CWE-674 - Uncontrolled Recursion
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when parsing nested groups as unknown fields with DiscardUnknownFieldsParser or Java Protobuf Lite parser, or against Protobuf map fields. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application to create unbounded recursions and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
Install updates from vendor's repository.
