CVE-2026-78228— Unbounded handle_error recursion enables denial of service in AshOban triggers

Quick assessment

Affected
ash-project ash_oban
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.

Ash Framework AshOban是Ash Framework组织开源的一个作业队列集成扩展。 Ash Framework AshOban 0.8.0-rc.1至0.8.14之前版本存在资源管理错误漏洞，该漏洞源于不受控制的递归，即handle_error/4处理失败任务时无限递归，可能导致攻击者通过使触发器on_error操作在最终尝试时失败来耗尽worker CPU和内存，造成拒绝服务。

Vulnerability Title
Unbounded handle_error recursion enables denial of service in AshOban triggers
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
Uncontrolled Recursion vulnerability in ash-project ash_oban allows a user who can drive a trigger's on_error action to fail on the final attempt to exhaust worker CPU and memory, denying service. The generated worker's atomic handle_error/4 runs the trigger's on_error action on a job's final attempt inside a rescue that, when the action itself raises, calls handle_error/4 again with the same job. The job's attempt still equals max_attempts, so it re-enters the same clause and re-runs the failing action, with no exit. Any deterministic on_error failure (a data-layer outage, a misconfigured action, or a record the action rejects) loops forever; because the recursive call is not in tail position, each iteration retains a formatted stacktrace and the process heap grows without bound while the failing statement is re-issued against the data layer until the runtime kills the worker. This issue affects ash_oban: from 0.8.0-rc.1 before 0.8.14.
