High severity GitHub Reviewed Published May 13, 2022 to the GitHub Advisory Database • Updated Oct 10, 2023

Package

maven org.onosproject:onos-base (Maven)

Affected versions

>= 1.8.0, <= 1.10.0

Patched versions

1.11.0

Description

Open Network Operating System, ONOS, versions 1.8.0, 1.9.0, and 1.10.0 do not restrict the amount of memory allocated because the NettyMessagingManager payload size is not limited. ONOS nodes timeout when trying to connect to the cluster in vm test cluster, leading to a potential denial of service.
