DescriptionCVE.org
An issue pertaining to CWE-400: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption was discovered in YMFE yapi v1.12.0 and allows attackers to cause a denial of service.
Executive ViewAI
YMFE yapi v1.12.0 contains a critical denial of service vulnerability that could render the API documentation platform unavailable to users. Organizations running this version face operational disruption risks, as attackers can exhaust system resources without authentication, impacting development teams' ability to access API documentation and collaborate effectively.
Implement Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to rate-limit requests and block resource-exhaustion patterns; deploy reverse proxy with connection/request throttling; restrict network access to yapi instances via firewall rules to trusted networks only; enable detailed logging and alerting on resource consumption metrics; consider temporarily disabling public access to yapi if it is internet-facing until patch availability is confirmed.
