Vulnerability from pysec - Published: 2025-03-20 10:15 - Updated: 2025-04-01 23:22

Details

A vulnerability in the KnowledgeBaseWebReader class of the run-llama/llama_index repository, version latest, allows an attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by controlling a URL variable to contain the root URL. This leads to infinite recursive calls to the get_article_urls method, exhausting system resources and potentially crashing the application.

CVE-2024-12910 (GCVE-0-2024-12910)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2025-03-20 10:09 – Updated: 2025-10-15 12:50

Title

Denial of Service in run-llama/llama_index

Summary

A vulnerability in the `KnowledgeBaseWebReader` class of the run-llama/llama_index repository, version latest, allows an attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by controlling a URL variable to contain the root URL. This leads to infinite recursive calls to the `get_article_urls` method, exhausting system resources and potentially crashing the application.
