http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1201229 Bug ID: 1201229 Summary: VUL-0: CVE-2022-31052,CVE-2022-31052: synapse: DoS due to unbounded recusion Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 42.3 Hardware: Other URL: https://smash.suse.de/issue/335801/ OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Security Assignee: mrueckert@suse.com Reporter: meissner@suse.com QA Contact: security-team@suse.de Found By: Security Response Team Blocker: --- rh#2102872 Synapse is an open source home server implementation for the Matrix chat network. In versions prior to 1.61.1 URL previews of some web pages can exhaust the available stack space for the Synapse process due to unbounded recursion. This is sometimes recoverable and leads to an error for the request causing the problem, but in other cases the Synapse process may crash altogether. It is possible to exploit this maliciously, either by malicious users on the homeserver, or by remote users sending URLs that a local user's client may automatically request a URL preview for. Remote users are not able to exploit this directly, because the URL preview endpoint is authenticated. Deployments with `url_preview_enabled: false` set in configuration are not affected. Deployments with `url_preview_enabled: true` set in configuration **are** affected. Deployments with no configuration value set for `url_preview_enabled` are not affected, because the default is `false`. Administrators of homeservers with URL previews enabled are advised to upgrade to v1.61.1 or higher. Users unable to upgrade should set `url_preview_enabled` to false. https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/security/advisories/GHSA-22p3-qrh9-cx3... https://spec.matrix.org/v1.2/client-server-api/#get_matrixmediav3preview_url https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/commit/fa1308061802ac7b7d20e954ba7372c...
