Summary
Eclipse Jetty's ThreadLimitHandler.getRemote() vulnerable to remote DoS attacks
Details
Impact
Remote DOS attack can cause out of memory
Description
There exists a security vulnerability in Jetty's ThreadLimitHandler.getRemote()
which
can be exploited by unauthorized users to cause remote denial-of-service (DoS) attack. By
repeatedly sending crafted requests, attackers can trigger OutofMemory errors and exhaust the
server's memory.
Affected Versions
- Jetty 12.0.0-12.0.8 (Supported)
- Jetty 11.0.0-11.0.23 (EOL)
- Jetty 10.0.0-10.0.23 (EOL)
- Jetty 9.3.12-9.4.55 (EOL)
Patched Versions
- Jetty 12.0.9
- Jetty 11.0.24
- Jetty 10.0.24
- Jetty 9.4.56
Workarounds
Do not use ThreadLimitHandler
.
Consider use of QoSHandler
instead to artificially limit resource utilization.
