Описание
Forge (also called node-forge) is a native implementation of Transport Layer Security in JavaScript. Prior to version 1.4.0, a Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability exists in the node-forge library due to an infinite loop in the BigInteger.modInverse() function (inherited from the bundled jsbn library). When modInverse() is called with a zero value as input, the internal Extended Euclidean Algorithm enters an unreachable exit condition, causing the process to hang indefinitely and consume 100% CPU. Version 1.4.0 patches the issue.
A flaw was found in the node-forge library, a JavaScript implementation of Transport Layer Security. This vulnerability, inherited from the bundled jsbn library, allows a remote attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS). When the BigInteger.modInverse() function is called with a zero value, it enters an infinite loop, causing the process to hang indefinitely and consume 100% of the CPU resources.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
