Summary
Spring Retry has Cache Exhaustion in Stateful Retries that leads to Denial of Service
Details

An attacker can craft a large number of unique requests that trigger a failure, exhausting the capacity of the application-wide stateful retry cache. Once the cache is full, it permanently rejects any further updates, causing all later stateful retries and circuit breakers in the application to fail.

Affected versions: Spring Retry 2.0.0 through 2.0.12; 1.3.0 through 1.3.4.

Severity
5.9 (Medium)
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
