Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: Red Hat Hardened Images RPMs bug fix and enhancement update
Severity
Moderate
Notes
Topic: An update for Red Hat Hardened Images RPMs is now available.
Details: This update includes the following RPMs: grafana12.4: * grafana12.4-12.4.12-0.4.hum1 (aarch64, x86_64) * grafana12.4-12.4.12-0.4.hum1.src (src)

A flaw was found in the moby/sys/user package. The package does not properly limit memory allocation when parsing Unix-style user and group database files, such as /etc/passwd or /etc/group. An attacker who can supply a specially crafted file can cause excessive memory consumption, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) condition by crashing the affected process.

CWE-770 - Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling
