CVSS 3.1 Score 5.3 of 10 (medium)
Details
Summary
CVE-2024-29186 is a vulnerability found in Bref prior to version 2.1.17, an open-source project that facilitates serverless deployments on Amazon Web Services with PHP. The vulnerability occurs when Bref is used with the Event-Driven Function runtime and the handler is a `RequestHandlerInterface`. In this scenario, if the request is a MultiPart, the `Content-Type` header of each part is read using the `Riverline/multipart-parser` library. The library performs slow multi-byte string operations on the header value, specifically using the `mb_convert_encoding` function. This can be exploited by an attacker to send specially crafted requests that trigger long operations and result in a longer billed duration for the server. The attack requires certain conditions to be met and has limitations.
