- Denial of service attacks may occur due to uncontrolled resource consumption
- High CPU load may be caused by exploitation of the vulnerability
- Verification of exposure is necessary for csaf_provider versions less than or equal to 3.6.0
Technical summary
The gocsaf/csaf csaf_provider product is prone to an uncontrolled resource consumption vulnerability, which can be exploited by an unauthenticated remote attacker to cause high CPU load leading to a denial of service. This vulnerability is due to a weakness in the allocation of resources without limits or throttling in csaf_provider versions less than or equal to 3.6.0. Defenders should prioritize verifying exposure of affected versions and assessing the potential for denial of service attacks.
Defensive priority
Defenders should prioritize verifying exposure of csaf_provider versions less than or equal to 3.6.0 and assessing the potential for denial of service attacks.
Recommended defensive actions
- Verify exposure of csaf_provider versions less than or equal to 3.6.0
- Assess the potential for denial of service attacks
- Monitor for unusual CPU load patterns
- Consider implementing rate limiting or throttling
