Summary

Apache Struts is vulnerable to uncontrolled resource consumption. An application that exposes an endpoint collecting Content Security Policy violation reports reads the submitted report into memory without bounding how much it will accept, so a single request can exhaust the heap and deny service to other users. Such endpoints are ordinarily reachable without authentication. Applications that do not collect violation reports are not affected.

Risk Assessment

Risk of denial of service due to heap exhaustion, potentially making the application unavailable.

Recommendation

Upgrade Apache Struts to version 6.11.0 or 7.3.0, which fixes the issue.

Original NVD description (English source)

Uncontrolled resource consumption vulnerability in Apache Struts. An application that exposes an endpoint collecting Content Security Policy violation reports reads the submitted report into memory without bounding how much it will accept, so a single request can exhaust the heap and deny service to other users. Such endpoints are ordinarily reachable without authentication. The core distribution maps no such endpoint by default; applications that do not collect violation reports are not affected. This issue affects Apache Struts: from 6.0.0 through 6.10.0, from 7.0.0 through 7.2.1. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 6.11.0 or 7.3.0, which fixes the issue.
