CVE-2024-21503 (GCVE-0-2024-21503)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2024-03-19 05:00 – Updated: 2024-08-01 22:20
VLAI?
Summary
Versions of the package black before 24.3.0 are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) via the lines_with_leading_tabs_expanded function in the strings.py file. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by crafting a malicious input that causes a denial of service. Exploiting this vulnerability is possible when running Black on untrusted input, or if you habitually put thousands of leading tab characters in your docstrings.
Severity ?
