DescriptionGitHub Advisory

OliveTin gives access to predefined shell commands from a web interface. Prior to version 3000.10.2, the PasswordHash API endpoint allows unauthenticated users to trigger excessive memory allocation by sending concurrent password hashing requests. By issuing multiple parallel requests, an attacker can exhaust available container memory, leading to service degradation or complete denial of service (DoS). The issue occurs because the endpoint performs computationally and memory-intensive hashing operations without request throttling, authentication requirements, or resource limits. This issue has been patched in version 3000.10.2.

AnalysisAI

OliveTin versions prior to 3000.10.2 are vulnerable to unauthenticated denial of service through the PasswordHash API endpoint, which lacks request throttling or authentication controls and allows attackers to trigger excessive memory allocation via concurrent hashing requests. An attacker can exhaust container memory by sending multiple parallel requests, causing service degradation or complete outage. …
