Risk analysis

This vulnerability is rated 🟠 HIGH.

  • CVSS: 7.0 (HIGH)
  • Detected tags: dos, info_leak, race (tag impact: VERY HIGH)

Recommended actions:

  • Rate limiting, resource quotas and circuit breakers.
  • Reduce verbose errors, remove debug endpoints, minimize PII in logs.
  • Patch/upgrade immediately (remote code execution).
  • Reduce exposure (WAF/segmentation), minimize attack surface.
