**Summary** Client-Initiated TLS Renegotiation Denial of Service (DoS) Vulnerability at Port 4200 **Details** A high-risk vulnerability has been identified where the TLS endpoint (port 4200) permits client-initiated renegotiation. In this scenario, an attacker can exploit this feature to repeatedly request renegotiation of security parameters during an ongoing TLS session. This flaw could lead to excessive consumption of CPU resources, resulting in potential server overload and service disruption. The vulnerability was confirmed using an openssl client where the command 'R' initiates renegotiation, followed by the server confirming with 'RENEGOTIATING'. **PoC** 1. Connect to the TLS server on port 4200 using an openssl client. 2. Initiate a TLS session. 3. Send the renegotiation command ('R') multiple times. 4. Observe the server response to confirm renegotiation. **Impact** This vulnerability allows an attacker to perform a denial of service attack by exhausting server CPU ...
A flaw was discovered in Elasticsearch, affecting document ingestion when an index template contains a dynamic field mapping of “passthrough” type. Under certain circumstances, ingesting documents in this index would cause a StackOverflow exception to be thrown and ultimately lead to a Denial of Service. Note that passthrough fields is an experimental feature.
