The routes that start a single sign-on and hand out a passkey sign-in challenge are reached without authentication and stored pending state in bounded tables that dropped their oldest entry when full, whoever had started it. An attacker who starts sign-ins a few times a second (about a hundred a second for passkeys) pushes every other user's pending sign-in out of the table before that user's browser returns, denying single sign-on and passkey sign-in for as long as the requests continue." } ], "affected": [ { "vendor": "Progressive Robot Ltd", "product": "hMailServer", "repo": "https://gitlab.com/hmailserver/hmailserver", "versions": [ { "version": "6.3.4", "status": "affected", "lessThan": "6.3.6", "versionType": "semver" } ], "defaultStatus": "unaffected" } ], "problemTypes": [ { "descriptions": [ { "lang": "en", "description": "CWE-770: Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling", "cweId": "CWE-770", "type": "CWE" } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://gitlab.com/hmailserver/hmailserver/-/work_items/63" }, { "url": "https://gitlab.com/hmailserver/hmailserver/-/releases/v6.3.6" } ], "metrics": [ { "format": "CVSS", "scenarios": [ { "lang": "en", "value": "GENERAL" } ], "cvssV3_1": { "version": "3.1", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "attackComplexity": "LOW", "privilegesRequired": "NONE", "userInteraction": "NONE", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "confidentialityImpact": "NONE", "integrityImpact": "NONE", "availabilityImpact": "LOW", "baseScore": 5.3, "baseSeverity": "MEDIUM" } } ], "solutions": [ { "lang": "en", "value": "Upgrade to hMailServer 6.3.6, in which a pending OpenID Connect, SAML or passkey sign-in is no longer held on the server at all but carried by the browser in a cookie sealed with AES-256-GCM under a key held only in memory and good once, so there is no table a flood of unauthenticated starts can fill.
