Unknown · Graphql-Java · CVE-2022-37734
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
graphql-java versions prior to 19.0
graphql-java version 18.3
graphql-java version 17.4
**Description**
The issue allows an attacker to send a malicious GraphQL query that consumes CPU resources, leading to a Denial of Service. This can be achieved by exploiting the `graphql-java` functionality, specifically through crafting malicious queries that overwhelm the system's resources.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 19.0, update to version 19.0 or later.
For version 18.3, no additional action is required as it is a fixed version.
For version 17.4, no additional action is required as it is a fixed version.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of malicious GraphQL queries to minimize the risk of exploitation.
