Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-04-28 14:17 – Updated: 2025-11-21 22:18
VLAI
Summary
net-imap rubygem vulnerable to possible DoS by memory exhaustion
Details

Summary

There is a possibility for denial of service by memory exhaustion when net-imap reads server responses. At any time while the client is connected, a malicious server can send can send a "literal" byte count, which is automatically read by the client's receiver thread. The response reader immediately allocates memory for the number of bytes indicated by the server response.

This should not be an issue when securely connecting to trusted IMAP servers that are well-behaved. It can affect insecure connections and buggy, untrusted, or compromised servers (for example, connecting to a user supplied hostname).

Details

The IMAP protocol allows "literal" strings to be sent in responses, prefixed with their size in curly braces (e.g. {1234567890}\r\n). When Net::IMAP receives a response containing a literal string, it calls IO#read with that size. When called with a size, IO#read immediately allocates memory to buffer the entire string before processing continues. The server does not need to send any more data. There is no limit on the size of literals that will be accepted.

Fix

Upgrade

Users should upgrade to net-imap 0.5.7 or later. A configurable max_response_size limit has been added to Net::IMAP's response reader. The max_response_size limit has also been backported to net-imap 0.2.5, 0.3.9, and 0.4.20.

To set a global value for max_response_size, users must upgrade to net-imap ~> 0.4.20, or > 0.5.7.

Configuration

To avoid backward compatibility issues for secure connections to trusted well-behaved servers, the default max_response_size for net-imap 0.5.7 is very high (512MiB), and the default max_response_size for net-imap ~> 0.4.20, ~> 0.3.9, and 0.2.5 is nil (unlimited).

When connecting to untrusted servers or using insecure connections, a much lower max_response_size should be used.

# Set the global max_response_size (only ~> v0.4.20, > 0.5.7)
Net::IMAP.config.max_response_size = 256 << 10 # 256 KiB

# Set when creating the connection
imap = Net::IMAP.new(hostname, ssl: true,
                     max_response_size: 16 << 10) # 16 KiB

# Set after creating the connection
imap.max_response_size = 256 << 20 # 256 KiB
# flush currently waiting read, to ensure the new setting is loaded
imap.noop

Please Note: max_response_size only limits the size per response. It does not prevent a flood of individual responses and it does not limit how many unhandled responses may be stored on the responses hash. Users are responsible for adding response handlers to prune excessive unhandled responses.

Compatibility with lower max_response_size

A lower max_response_size may cause a few commands which legitimately return very large responses to raise an exception and close the connection. The max_response_size could be temporarily set to a higher value, but paginated or limited versions of commands should be used whenever possible. For example, to fetch message bodies:

imap.max_response_size = 256 << 20 # 256 KiB
imap.noop # flush currently waiting read

# fetch a message in 252KiB chunks
size = imap.uid_fetch(uid, "RFC822.SIZE").first.rfc822_size
limit = 252 << 10
message = ((0..size) % limit).each_with_object("") {|offset, str|
  str << imap.uid_fetch(uid, "BODY.PEEK[]<#{offset}.#{limit}>").first.message(offset:)
}

imap.max_response_size = 16 << 20 # 16 KiB
imap.noop # flush currently waiting read

Summary
Asymmetric Resource Consumption (Amplification) in Docker containers created by Wings
Details

Impact

All versions of Pterodactyl Wings preior to 1.4.4 are vulnerable to system resource exhaustion due to improper container process limits being defined. A malicious user can consume more resources than intended and cause downstream impacts to other clients on the same hardware, eventually causing the physical server to stop responding.

Patches

Users should upgrade to 1.4.4.

Workarounds

There is no non-code based workaround for impacted versions of the software. Users running customized versions of this software can manually set a PID limit for containers created.

GHSA-JM46-725R-HH9V

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-03-19 18:31 – Updated: 2024-03-25 00:30
VLAI
Details

An issue was found in the CPython zipfile module affecting versions 3.12.2, 3.11.8, 3.10.13, 3.9.18, and 3.8.18 and prior.

The zipfile module is vulnerable to “quoted-overlap” zip-bombs which exploit the zip format to create a zip-bomb with a high compression ratio. The fixed versions of CPython makes the zipfile module reject zip archives which overlap entries in the archive.

Details

Concrete CMS 9 before 9.5.3 did not escape SQL LIKE wildcard characters in the keyword search filters used by the file manager, file folders, and page list, allowing an authenticated user with editor-level or higher privileges to submit a crafted search containing many single-character wildcards. Because the keyword input was placed into the LIKE clause without neutralizing its wildcard metacharacters, a short request could force the database to evaluate every row and perform a full-table scan, and repeated or wildcard-dense searches could sustain elevated database CPU and I/O, degrading responsiveness for other users on large installations. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v4.0 score of 2.1 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N.

Summary
jwt-go allows excessive memory allocation during header parsing
Details

Summary

Function parse.ParseUnverified currently splits (via a call to strings.Split) its argument (which is untrusted data) on periods.

As a result, in the face of a malicious request whose Authorization header consists of Bearer followed by many period characters, a call to that function incurs allocations to the tune of O(n) bytes (where n stands for the length of the function's argument), with a constant factor of about 16. Relevant weakness: CWE-405: Asymmetric Resource Consumption (Amplification)

Summary
league/commonmark: Denial of service via deeply nested XML output
Details

Impact

XmlRenderer pretty-prints XML by emitting depth-proportional indentation whitespace for every opening and closing tag. For a tree of depth n, the indentation alone sums to O(n²) bytes of output (and corresponding memory), reachable through MarkdownToXmlConverter — e.g. str_repeat('> ', $depth) . "x\n", a single line of nested blockquotes — or through a direct XmlRenderer::renderDocument() call on an attacker-influenced AST.

This affects applications that convert untrusted Markdown to XML, which is an opt-in output path. The parser's max_nesting_level bounds the depth of parser-created trees, but its default is high enough to reach damaging sizes, can be raised by the host application, and does not constrain custom or programmatically built ASTs handed straight to the renderer. The result is a memory / output-size amplification rather than a hard crash, which is why this issue is rated Medium rather than High. No confidentiality or integrity impact. XML rendering was introduced in 2.0.0 (first shipped in 2.0.0-beta1, June 2021) and has emitted depth-proportional indentation ever since, so all 2.x releases are affected (verified against 2.8.x, clean upstream 1902f60f). 1.x has no XML renderer and is not affected.

Workarounds

Applications converting untrusted Markdown to XML should:

  • Lower max_nesting_level to a conservative value appropriate to expected content, so the parser refuses to build extremely deep trees. This is the most direct lever for parser-produced ASTs, but does not protect trees built programmatically and passed straight to XmlRenderer.
  • Cap input size before conversion, since the amplification is driven by input-proportional depth.
  • Constrain XML consumers with memory / output-size limits (and streaming or size caps on any downstream XML parser or storage) so one request cannot allocate unbounded output.
  • Prefer HTML rendering for untrusted content where XML is not strictly required — the HTML renderer does not emit depth-proportional indentation and is not subject to this amplification.

Details

Zebra before 6.0.0 contains a denial of service vulnerability that allows unauthenticated peers to stall Tokio workers by submitting mempool transactions requiring expensive synchronous script verification. Attackers can send non-standard high-sigop P2SH transactions that reach CachedFfiTransaction::is_valid() before standardness checks, saturating the verifier buffer and rendering the node unresponsive.

Severity

Mitigation
Architecture and Design

An application must make resources available to a client commensurate with the client's access level.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design

An application must, at all times, keep track of allocated resources and meter their usage appropriately.

Mitigation
System Configuration

Consider disabling resource-intensive algorithms on the server side, such as Diffie-Hellman key exchange.
