Overview

org.yaml:snakeyaml is a YAML 1.1 parser and emitter for Java.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) due missing to nested depth limitation for collections.

Details

Denial of Service (DoS) describes a family of attacks, all aimed at making a system inaccessible to its intended and legitimate users.

Unlike other vulnerabilities, DoS attacks usually do not aim at breaching security. Rather, they are focused on making websites and services unavailable to genuine users resulting in downtime.

One popular Denial of Service vulnerability is DDoS (a Distributed Denial of Service), an attack that attempts to clog network pipes to the system by generating a large volume of traffic from many machines.

When it comes to open source libraries, DoS vulnerabilities allow attackers to trigger such a crash or crippling of the service by using a flaw either in the application code or from the use of open source libraries.

Two common types of DoS vulnerabilities:

Remediation

Upgrade org.yaml:snakeyaml to version 1.31 or higher.
