CVE-2018-10237 – guava: Unbounded memory allocation in AtomicDoubleArray and CompoundOrdering classes allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2018-10237

Unbounded memory allocation in Google Guava 11.0 through 24.x before 24.1.1 allows remote attackers to conduct denial of service attacks against servers that depend on this library and deserialize attacker-provided data, because the AtomicDoubleArray class (when serialized with Java serialization) and the CompoundOrdering class (when serialized with GWT serialization) perform eager allocation without appropriate checks on what a client has sent and whether the data size is reasonable. Asignación de memoria sin restringir en Google Guava 11.0 hasta las versiones 24.x anteriores a la 24.1.1 permite que los atacantes remotos realicen ataques de denegación de servicio (DoS) contra servidores que dependen de esta librería y que deserialicen datos proporcionados por dichos atacantes debido a que la clase AtomicDoubleArray (cuando se serializa con serialización Java) y la clase CompoundOrdering (cuando se serializa con serialización GWT) realiza una asignación sin comprobar adecuadamente lo que ha enviado un cliente y si el tamaño de los datos es razonable. A vulnerability was found in Guava where the AtomicDoubleArray and CompoundOrdering classes were found to allocate memory based on size fields sent by the client without validation. A crafted message could cause the server to consume all available memory or crash leading to a denial of service. • http://www.securitytracker.com/id/1041707 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:2423 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:2424 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:2425 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:2428 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:2598 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:2643 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:2740 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:2741 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:274 • CWE-119: Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer CWE-770: Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling •
