node-forge ASN.1 Unbounded Recursion
Summary
node-forge ASN.1 Unbounded Recursion
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Forge (also called node-forge) is a native implementation of Transport Layer Security in JavaScript. An Uncontrolled Recursion vulnerability in node-forge versions 1.3.1 and below enables remote, unauthenticated attackers to craft deep ASN.1 structures that trigger unbounded recursive parsing. This leads to a Denial-of-Service (DoS) via stack exhaustion when parsing untrusted DER inputs. This issue has been patched in version 1.3.2.
