Description

Impact

A denial of service vulnerability could be triggered by sending specially crafted HTTP requests to server function endpoints, this could lead to out-of-memory exceptions or excessive CPU usage.

We recommend updating immediately.

The vulnerability exists in versions 19.0.0 through 19.0.5, 19.1.0 through 19.1.6, and 19.2.0 through 19.2.5 of:

react-server-dom-webpack
react-server-dom-parcel
react-server-dom-turbopack

Patches

Fixes were back ported to versions 19.0.6, 19.1.7, and 19.2.6.

If you are using any of the above packages please upgrade to any of the fixed versions immediately.

If your app’s React code does not use a server, your app is not affected by this vulnerability. If your app does not use a framework, bundler, or bundler plugin that supports React Server Components, your app is not affected by this vulnerability.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.

Weaknesses

Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

The product does not properly control the allocation and maintenance of a limited resource. Learn more on MITRE.

Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling

The product allocates a reusable resource or group of resources on behalf of an actor without imposing any intended restrictions on the size or number of resources that can be allocated. Learn more on MITRE.
