Description

All versions of the package configobj are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) via the validate function, using (.+?)\((.*)\). **Note:** This is only exploitable in the case of a developer, putting the offending value in a server side configuration file.

Solution(s)

  • suse-upgrade-python-configobj
  • suse-upgrade-python3-configobj

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
