CVE-2025-32032Hig0.427.50.00Apr 7, 2025The Apollo Router Core is a configurable, high-performance graph router written in Rust to run a federated supergraph that uses Apollo Federation 2. A vulnerability in Apollo Router allowed queries with deeply nested and reused named fragments to be prohibitively expensive to query plan, specifically due to internal optimizations being frequently bypassed. The query planner includes an optimization that significantly speeds up planning for applicable GraphQL selections. However, queries with deeply nested and reused named fragments can generate many selections where this optimization does not apply, leading to significantly longer planning times. Because the query planner does not enforce a timeout, a small number of such queries can exhaust router's thread pool, rendering it inoperable. This could lead to excessive resource consumption and denial of service. This has been remediated in apollo-router versions 1.61.2 and 2.1.1.
CVE-2025-31496Hig0.427.50.00Apr 7, 2025apollo-compiler is a query-based compiler for the GraphQL query language. Prior to 1.27.0, a vulnerability in Apollo Compiler allowed queries with deeply nested and reused named fragments to be prohibitively expensive to validate. Named fragments were being processed once per fragment spread in some cases during query validation, leading to exponential resource usage when deeply nested and reused fragments were involved. This could lead to excessive resource consumption and denial of service in applications. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.27.0.
CVE-2025-29786Hig0.427.50.00Mar 17, 2025Expr 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.
CVE-2024-57972Med0.426.50.02Mar 6, 2025The pairing API request handler in Microsoft HoloLens 1 (Windows Holographic) through 10.0.17763.3046 and HoloLens 2 (Windows Holographic) through 10.0.22621.1244 allows remote attackers to cause a Denial of Service (resource consumption and device unusability) by sending many requests through the Device Portal framework.
CVE-2025-27513Hig0.427.50.00Mar 5, 2025OpenTelemetry dotnet is a dotnet telemetry framework. A vulnerability in OpenTelemetry.Api package 1.10.0 to 1.11.1 could cause a Denial of Service (DoS) when a tracestate and traceparent header is received. Even if an application does not explicitly use trace context propagation, receiving these headers can still trigger high CPU usage. This issue impacts any application accessible over the web or backend services that process HTTP requests containing a tracestate header. Application may experience excessive resource consumption, leading to increased latency, degraded performance, or downtime. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.11.2.
CVE-2024-49589Med0.426.50.00Feb 18, 2025Foundry Artifacts was found to be vulnerable to a Denial Of Service attack due to disk being potentially filled up based on an user supplied argument (size).
CVE-2024-54497Med0.426.50.00Jan 27, 2025The issue was addressed with improved checks. This issue is fixed in iOS 18.2 and iPadOS 18.2, iPadOS 17.7.4, macOS Sequoia 15.2, macOS Sonoma 14.7.3, macOS Ventura 13.7.3, tvOS 18.2, visionOS 2.2, watchOS 11.2. Processing web content may lead to a denial-of-service.
CVE-2025-24033Hig0.427.50.00Jan 23, 2025@fastify/multipart is a Fastify plugin for parsing the multipart content-type. Prior to versions 8.3.1 and 9.0.3, the `saveRequestFiles` function does not delete the uploaded temporary files when user cancels the request. The issue is fixed in versions 8.3.1 and 9.0.3. As a workaround, do not use `saveRequestFiles`.
CVE-2024-56319Hig0.427.50.00Dec 18, 2024In Matter (aka connectedhomeip or Project CHIP) through 1.4.0.0 before e3277eb, unlimited user label appends in a userlabel cluster can lead to a denial of service (resource exhaustion).
CVE-2024-12254Hig0.427.50.00Dec 6, 2024Starting in Python 3.12.0, the asyncio._SelectorSocketTransport.writelines() method would not "pause" writing and signal to the Protocol to drain the buffer to the wire once the write buffer reached the "high-water mark". Because of this, Protocols would not periodically drain the write buffer potentially leading to memory exhaustion. This vulnerability likely impacts a small number of users, you must be using Python 3.12.0 or later, on macOS or Linux, using the asyncio module with protocols, and using .writelines() method which had new zero-copy-on-write behavior in Python 3.12.0 and later. If not all of these factors are true then your usage of Python is unaffected.
CVE-2024-53857Hig0.427.50.00Dec 5, 2024rPGP is a pure Rust implementation of OpenPGP. Prior to 0.14.1, rPGP allows attackers to trigger resource exhaustion vulnerabilities in rpgp by providing crafted messages. This affects general message parsing and decryption with symmetric keys.
CVE-2024-48080Hig0.427.50.00Dec 3, 2024An issue in aedes v0.51.2 allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service(DoS) via a crafted request. NOTE: the Supplier indicates that exploitation cannot occur because of the protection mechanism in the validateTopic function in lib/utils.js.
CVE-2024-53981Hig0.427.50.00Dec 2, 2024python-multipart is a streaming multipart parser for Python. When parsing form data, python-multipart skips line breaks (CR \r or LF \n) in front of the first boundary and any tailing bytes after the last boundary. This happens one byte at a time and emits a log event each time, which may cause excessive logging for certain inputs. An attacker could abuse this by sending a malicious request with lots of data before the first or after the last boundary, causing high CPU load and stalling the processing thread for a significant amount of time. In case of ASGI application, this could stall the event loop and prevent other requests from being processed, resulting in a denial of service (DoS). This vulnerability is fixed in 0.0.18.
CVE-2024-21539Hig0.427.50.00Nov 19, 2024Versions of the package @eslint/plugin-kit before 0.2.3 are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) due to improper input sanitization. An attacker can increase the CPU usage and crash the program by exploiting this vulnerability.
CVE-2024-52918Med0.426.50.00Nov 18, 2024Bitcoin-Qt in Bitcoin Core before 0.20.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and application crash) via a BIP21 r parameter for a URL that has a large file.
CVE-2024-47614Hig0.427.50.00Oct 3, 2024async-graphql is a GraphQL server library implemented in Rust. async-graphql before 7.0.10 does not limit the number of directives for a field. This can lead to Service Disruption, Resource Exhaustion, and User Experience Degradation. This vulnerability is fixed in 7.0.10.
