CVE Score
Low
Denial of Service (DoS)
TL;DR
Affected versions of this package fail to guard against overflow when decoding YAML files. This allows attackers to craft malicious YAML files with excessively deep nesting, leading to resource exhaustion. As the system attempts to parse the deeply nested structure, it can experience significant slowdowns, high CPU usage, and memory exhaustion, ultimately resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
How do I fix this?
Upgrade the github.com/goccy/go-yaml library to the patch version.
