GHSA-XG43-5579-QW6V
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-07-15 23:30 – Updated: 2026-07-15 23:30Impact
adawolfa/isdoc reads ISDOC invoices from ISDOCX (ZIP) archives and from PDF files with embedded ISDOC documents and supplements. Affected versions inflate ZIP entries and read embedded files without validating their uncompressed size, so a small crafted file can amplify into gigabytes:
- ISDOCX decompression bomb —
getFromName()inflates the ISDOC document and binary supplements with no size cap. saveTo()disk-fill — the supplement copy loop writes inflated bytes to disk with no running byte budget, so a bomb can exhaust disk even if the central-directory size is under-reported.- PDF embedded files — an embedded file whose declared
Lengthis enormous is read and digested with no upper bound.
Exploitation requires the application to parse an attacker-supplied .isdocx or .pdf (the typical use is generating files or parsing files from trusted vendors, so a user must be induced to process a malicious file). When that happens the process can be driven to exhaust memory or disk, causing denial of service. There is no confidentiality or integrity impact — availability only.
Patches
Fixed in 1.4.3, 1.5.1, 1.6.1 and 2.0.0. The readers now:
- read the uncompressed size from the ZIP central directory (
statName()) and reject entries over a cap before inflating — 256 KB (DocumentSizeLimit) for the ISDOC document, 32 MB (SizeLimit) for supplements; - enforce a running byte budget in
saveTo()and unlink the partial file on overflow; - reject PDF-embedded files whose declared
Lengthexceeds 256 MB before reading or digesting them.
New exceptions ReaderException::zipEntryTooLarge(), SupplementException::supplementTooLarge() and ReaderException::pdfSupplementTooLarge() surface the rejection.
Unsupported versions
Versions before 1.4.0 (the 1.0–1.3 lines) are also affected and will not receive a fix, because they target end-of-life PHP. Users on those lines should upgrade to a maintained release — 1.4.3, 1.5.1, 1.6.1, or 2.0.0.
Workarounds
No code-level workaround exists in affected versions; upgrading is the fix. As mitigation, restrict parsing to trusted input, or enforce an external size / decompression limit (validate ZIP entry sizes, cap process memory) before handing files to the library.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-04-22 20:55 – Updated: 2024-03-04 18:35Impact
Allows an attacker to perform a DOS attack consisting of memory exhaustion on the host system.
Patches
Yes. Please upgrade to v1.2.6.
Workarounds
A workaround is to restrict the path prefix to the "GET" method. As shown below
func main() {
r := mux.NewRouter()
r.PathPrefix("/swagger/").Handler(httpSwagger.Handler(
httpSwagger.URL("http://localhost:1323/swagger/doc.json"), //The url pointing to API definition
httpSwagger.DeepLinking(true),
httpSwagger.DocExpansion("none"),
httpSwagger.DomID("#swagger-ui"),
)).Methods(http.MethodGet)

GHSA-XG9F-G7G7-2323
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2023-02-15 15:36 – Updated: 2024-11-19 19:07Werkzeug's multipart form data parser will parse an unlimited number of parts, including file parts. Parts can be a small amount of bytes, but each requires CPU time to parse and may use more memory as Python data. If a request can be made to an endpoint that accesses request.data, request.form, request.files, or request.get_data(parse_form_data=False), it can cause unexpectedly high resource usage.
This allows an attacker to cause a denial of service by sending crafted multipart data to an endpoint that will parse it. The amount of CPU time required can block worker processes from handling legitimate requests. The amount of RAM required can trigger an out of memory kill of the process. Unlimited file parts can use up memory and file handles. If many concurrent requests are sent continuously, this can exhaust or kill all available workers.

GHSA-XGWC-RMQJ-WXQR
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-13 01:31 – Updated: 2022-05-13 01:31A vulnerability in the Decryption Policy Default Action functionality of the Cisco Web Security Appliance (WSA) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to bypass a configured drop policy and allow traffic onto the network that should have been denied. The vulnerability is due to the incorrect handling of SSL-encrypted traffic when Decrypt for End-User Notification is disabled in the configuration. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a SSL connection through the affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to bypass a configured drop policy to block specific SSL connections. Releases 10.1.x and 10.5.x are affected.

Mitigation
Design throttling mechanisms into the system architecture. The best protection is to limit the amount of resources that an unauthorized user can cause to be expended. A strong authentication and access control model will help prevent such attacks from occurring in the first place. The login application should be protected against DoS attacks as much as possible. Limiting the database access, perhaps by caching result sets, can help minimize the resources expended. To further limit the potential for a DoS attack, consider tracking the rate of requests received from users and blocking requests that exceed a defined rate threshold.
Mitigation
- Mitigation of resource exhaustion attacks requires that the target system either:
- The first of these solutions is an issue in itself though, since it may allow attackers to prevent the use of the system by a particular valid user. If the attacker impersonates the valid user, they may be able to prevent the user from accessing the server in question.
- The second solution is simply difficult to effectively institute -- and even when properly done, it does not provide a full solution. It simply makes the attack require more resources on the part of the attacker.
- recognizes the attack and denies that user further access for a given amount of time, or
- uniformly throttles all requests in order to make it more difficult to consume resources more quickly than they can again be freed.
Mitigation
Ensure that protocols have specific limits of scale placed on them.
Mitigation
Ensure that all failures in resource allocation place the system into a safe posture.
CAPEC-147: XML Ping of the Death
An attacker initiates a resource depletion attack where a large number of small XML messages are delivered at a sufficiently rapid rate to cause a denial of service or crash of the target. Transactions such as repetitive SOAP transactions can deplete resources faster than a simple flooding attack because of the additional resources used by the SOAP protocol and the resources necessary to process SOAP messages. The transactions used are immaterial as long as they cause resource utilization on the target. In other words, this is a normal flooding attack augmented by using messages that will require extra processing on the target.
CAPEC-227: Sustained Client Engagement
An adversary attempts to deny legitimate users access to a resource by continually engaging a specific resource in an attempt to keep the resource tied up as long as possible. The adversary's primary goal is not to crash or flood the target, which would alert defenders; rather it is to repeatedly perform actions or abuse algorithmic flaws such that a given resource is tied up and not available to a legitimate user. By carefully crafting a requests that keep the resource engaged through what is seemingly benign requests, legitimate users are limited or completely denied access to the resource.
CAPEC-492: Regular Expression Exponential Blowup
An adversary may execute an attack on a program that uses a poor Regular Expression(Regex) implementation by choosing input that results in an extreme situation for the Regex. A typical extreme situation operates at exponential time compared to the input size. This is due to most implementations using a Nondeterministic Finite Automaton(NFA) state machine to be built by the Regex algorithm since NFA allows backtracking and thus more complex regular expressions.
