Libmodulemd: libmodulemd: unbounded recursion when parsing nested xmd yaml
CVSS Score
6.2
EPSS Score
0.0%
EPSS Percentile
0th
A flaw was found in libmodulemd. When parsing module metadata, the xmd field is converted into nested GVariant values through recursive YAML mapping and sequence helpers without a recursion-depth or node-count limit. An attacker who can supply crafted modulemd YAML with deeply nested xmd content can cause stack exhaustion or excessive resource consumption, resulting in a denial of service.
