CVE-2011-4838
Estado: ModificadaMedia (5)—
JRuby before 1.6.5.1 computes hash values without restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via crafted input to an application that maintains a hash table.
CVSS
- Versión: 2.0
- Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P
