      <title>GHSA-389x-839f-4rhx — Denial of Service attack on windows app using Netty</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/ghsa-389x-839f-4rhx</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Maven: io.netty:netty-common&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Summary
An unsafe reading of environment file could potentially cause a denial of service in Netty.
When loaded on an Windows application, Netty attemps to load a file that does not exist. If an attacker creates such a large file, the Netty application crash.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Details
A similar issue was previously reported in https://github.com/netty/netty/security/advisories/GHSA-xq3w-v528-46rv
This issue was fixed, but the fix was incomplete in that null-bytes were not counted against the input limit.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### PoC
The PoC is the same as for https://github.com/netty/netty/security/advisories/GHSA-xq3w-v528-46rv with the detail that the file should only contain null-bytes; 0x00.
When the null-bytes are encountered by the `InputStreamReader`, it will issue replacement characters in its charset decoding, which will fill up the line-buffer in the `BufferedReader.readLine()`, because the replacement character is not a line-break character.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Impact
Impact is the same as https://github.com/netty/netty/security/advisories/GHSA-xq3w-v528-46rv&lt;/p&gt;</description>
