Quick assessment

Affected
WSO2 WSO2 Universal Gateway
Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

WSO2 universal gateway是美国WSO2公司开源的一款通用网关。 WSO2 universal gateway存在输入验证错误漏洞,该漏洞源于限流事件处理机制在接受用户提供的JSON有效载荷时未充分验证其结构和内容,导致未经身份验证的远程攻击者能够注入恶意JSON数据,造成持久拒绝服务。以下版本受到影响:WSO2 Universal Gateway 4.5.0.54之前版本、4.6.0.18之前版本和4.7.0.2之前版本;WSO2 Traffic Manager 4.5.0.53之前版

Vulnerability Title
Denial of Service via Malicious JSON Payloads in Throttling Events in Multiple WSO2 Products Causing Persistent Service Disruption
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
The throttling event handling mechanism in multiple WSO2 products accepts user-supplied JSON payloads without sufficient validation of their structure and content. This allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to inject malicious JSON data that can lead to a persistent denial of service condition. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability can disrupt the API Gateway, preventing legitimate API traffic from being processed and impacting complete service availability. The denial of service is persistent, requiring manual intervention to restore normal operations.
