| Vetor | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Specter IDS versions 4.5 through 5.0
Description
The issue allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service, specifically CPU exhaustion, via a port scan. This occurs because the server consumes CPU while preparing alerts in response to the scan.
Recommendations
For Specter IDS versions 4.5 through 5.0, consider restricting access to minimize the risk of exploitation until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, limiting the rate of port scans or implementing rate limiting on alerts could help mitigate the CPU exhaustion issue.
