CVE-2020-28493 (GCVE-0-2020-28493)

Title
Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS)
Summary
This affects the package jinja2 from 0.0.0 and before 2.11.3. The ReDoS vulnerability is mainly due to the `_punctuation_re regex` operator and its use of multiple wildcards. The last wildcard is the most exploitable as it searches for trailing punctuation. This issue can be mitigated by Markdown to format user content instead of the urlize filter, or by implementing request timeouts and limiting process memory.

Este problema puede ser mitigado con Markdown para formatear el contenido del usuario en lugar del filtro urlize, o implementando tiempos de espera de las peticiones y limitando la memoria del proceso\"}],\"metrics\":{\"cvssMetricV31\":[{\"source\":\"report@snyk.io\",\"type\":\"Secondary\",\"cvssData\":{\"version\":\"3.1\",\"vectorString\":\"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L\",\"baseScore\":5.3,\"baseSeverity\":\"MEDIUM\",\"attackVector\":\"NETWORK\",\"attackComplexity\":\"LOW\",\"privilegesRequired\":\"NONE\",\"userInteraction\":\"NONE\",\"scope\":\"UNCHANGED\",\"confidentialityImpact\":\"NONE\",\"integrityImpact\":\"NONE\",\"availabilityImpact\":\"LOW\"},\"exploitabilityScore\":3.9,\"impactScore\":1.4},{\"source\":\"nvd@nist.gov\",\"type\":\"Primary\",\"cvssData\":{\"version\":\"3.1\",\"vectorString\":\"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L\",\"baseScore\":5.3,\"baseSeverity\":\"MEDIUM\",\"attackVector\":\"NETWORK\",\"attackComplexity\":\"LOW\",\"privilegesRequired\":\"NONE\",\"userInteraction\":\"NONE\",\"scope\":\"UNCHANGED\",\"confidentialityImpact\":\"NONE\",\"integrityImpact\":\"NONE\",\"availabilityImpact\":\"LOW\"},\"exploitabilityScore\":3.9,\"impactScore\":1.4}],\"cvssMetricV2\":[{\"source\":\"nvd@nist.gov\",\"type\":\"Primary\",\"cvssData\":{\"version\":\"2.0\",\"vectorString\":\"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P\",\"baseScore\":5.0,\"accessVector\":\"NETWORK\",\"accessComplexity\":\"LOW\",\"authentication\":\"NONE\",\"confidentialityImpact\":\"NONE\",\"integrityImpact\":\"NONE\",\"availabilityImpact\":\"PARTIAL\"},\"baseSeverity\":\"MEDIUM\",\"exploitabilityScore\":10.0,\"impactScore\":2.9,\"acInsufInfo\":false,\"obtainAllPrivilege\":false,\"obtainUserPrivilege\":false,\"obtainOtherPrivilege\":false,\"userInteractionRequired\":false}]},\"weaknesses\":[{\"source\":\"nvd@nist.gov\",\"type\":\"Primary\",\"description\":[{\"lang\":\"en\",\"value\":\"CWE-400\"}]}],\"configurations\":[{\"nodes\":[{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:a:palletsprojects:jinja:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"versionEndExcluding\":\"2.11.3\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"B4C4464D-515B-4608-96F0-D7282C5AA582\"}]}]},{\"nodes\":[{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:o:fedoraproject:fedora:33:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"E460AA51-FCDA-46B9-AE97-E6676AA5E194\"}]}]}],\"references\":[{\"url\":\"https://github.com/pallets/jinja/blob/ab81fd9c277900c85da0c322a2ff9d68a235b2e6/src/jinja2/utils.py%23L20\",\"source\":\"report@snyk.io\",\"tags\":[\"Broken Link\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/pallets/jinja/pull/1343\",\"source\":\"report@snyk.io\",\"tags\":[\"Patch\",\"Third Party Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/PVAKCOO7VBVUBM3Q6CBBTPBFNP5NDXF4/\",\"source\":\"report@snyk.io\"},{\"url\":\"https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202107-19\",\"source\":\"report@snyk.io\",\"tags\":[\"Third Party Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://snyk.io/vuln/SNYK-PYTHON-JINJA2-1012994\",\"source\":\"report@snyk.io\",\"tags\":[\"Exploit\",\"Third Party Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/pallets/jinja/blob/ab81fd9c277900c85da0c322a2ff9d68a235b2e6/src/jinja2/utils.py%23L20\",\"source\":\"af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108\",\"tags\":[\"Broken Link\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/pallets/jinja/pull/1343\",\"source\":\"af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108\",\"tags\":[\"Patch\",\"Third Party Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/PVAKCOO7VBVUBM3Q6CBBTPBFNP5NDXF4/\",\"source\":\"af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108\"},{\"url\":\"https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202107-19\",\"source\":\"af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108\",\"tags\":[\"Third Party Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://snyk.io/vuln/SNYK-PYTHON-JINJA2-1012994\",\"source\":\"af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108\",\"tags\":[\"Exploit\",\"Third Party Advisory\"]}]}}"
