Description

Description :
Severity : Sonatype CVSS 3.0: 7.5

Weakness : Sonatype CWE: 400

Source : Sonatype Data Research

Categories : Data

Explanation : Netty is vulnerable to a Denial of Service (DoS) attack.The OpenSslEngine class does not have a mechanism to reject remotely initiated SSL renegotiation requests.An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending a large number of SSL renegotiation requests, causing the application to attempt to process all of them and tying up CPU and memory resources until the application becomes unresponsive or crashed, resulting in a Denial of Service.

Detection : The application is vulnerable by using this component.

Recommendation : We recommend upgrading to a version of this component that is not vulnerable to this specific issue.

Root Cause : Cassandra-2.2.5.nupkgOpenSslServerContext.class : [4.0.20.Final, 4.0.25.Final)

Advisories : Project: https://github.com/netty/netty/pull/3750

CVSS Details : Sonatype CVSS 3.0: 7.5
