OVERVIEW¶
A potential denial of service vulnerability.
DESCRIPTION¶
Due to lack of input validation in the AJAX processor, the request attribute counts could cause time and resource consuming repetitive processing (loops), which could result in denial of service.
IMPACT¶
Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks have the potential to overwhelm the deployment, resulting in either partial or full service disruptions. Depending on the exploitation techniques and volume, the vulnerability could slow down accessibility to produce functions or, in more extreme cases, render the product unavailable.
