CVE-2023-28104
CVSS v3.1
7.5
High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
silverstripe/graphql versions 4.1.1 through 4.2.2
Description
The issue allows an attacker to execute a denial of service attack against a website with a publicly exposed GraphQL endpoint using a specially crafted GraphQL query. This mostly affects websites with particularly large or complex GraphQL schemas. If the Silverstripe CMS project does not expose a public-facing GraphQL schema, a user account is required to trigger the attack. Hosting the site behind a content delivery network (CDN) may further mitigate the risk.
Recommendations
For versions 4.1.1 and 4.2.2, upgrade to silverstripe/graphql 4.1.2 or 4.2.3 to remedy the vulnerability.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the publicly exposed GraphQL endpoint until the issue is resolved.
If the site is hosted behind a CDN, ensure the CDN configuration is up-to-date to maximize the mitigation of the risk.
