Descriptions

A Potential DOS Vulnerability exists in CERT VINCE software prior to version 3.0.8. An authenticated administrative user can inject an arbitrary pickle object as part of a user's profile. This can lead to a potential DoS on the server when the user's profile is accessed. Django server does restrict unpickling from crashing the server.

A potential denial-of-service (DoS) vulnerability exists in CERT VINCE software versions prior to 3.0.8. An authenticated administrative user can inject an arbitrary pickle object into a user’s profile, which may lead to a DoS condition when the profile is accessed. While the Django server restricts unpickling to prevent server crashes, this vulnerability could still disrupt operations.
