CVE-2021-42717 | 4 Debian, F5, Oracle and 1 more | 5 Debian Linux, Nginx Modsecurity Waf, Http Server and 2 more | 2022-09-02 | 5.0 MEDIUM | 7.5 HIGH |
ModSecurity 3.x through 3.0.5 mishandles excessively nested JSON objects. Crafted JSON objects with nesting tens-of-thousands deep could result in the web server being unable to service legitimate requests. Even a moderately large (e.g., 300KB) HTTP request can occupy one of the limited NGINX worker processes for minutes and consume almost all of the available CPU on the machine. Modsecurity 2 is similarly vulnerable: the affected versions include 2.8.0 through 2.9.4. |
