Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
CodeChecker's massStoreRun processing path performs one-shot decompression of attacker-controlled, Base64-encoded zlib data without enforcing a maximum decompressed size.
An authenticated user with permission to store analysis runs can submit a highly compressed payload that expands to a significantly larger byte sequence. Because the entire decompressed output is materialized in memory before being written to a temporary file, a sufficiently large payload may exhaust process or host memory and consume substantial disk space, resulting in denial of service.
AnalysisAI
Memory exhaustion and disk consumption in Ericsson CodeChecker's massStoreRun API endpoint allows authenticated users holding analysis-run storage permissions to trigger denial of service via a decompression bomb. The processing path accepts Base64-encoded zlib payloads and fully materializes the decompressed output in memory before any disk write, with no maximum decompressed size enforced - a small compressed payload can expand to gigabytes. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires an authenticated session with the specific 'permission to store analysis runs' within CodeChecker - this is not a default low-privilege user capability and is not exposed to unauthenticated users (PR:H in the CVSS vector). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 score of 5.5 reflects a medium finding, principally constrained by PR:H - the attacker must be authenticated and hold the specific 'store analysis runs' permission, which is not a default low-privilege capability. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Consult the vendor GitHub security advisory at https://github.com/Ericsson/codechecker/security/advisories/GHSA-w7jw-x567-hqr4 for the patched release version - no specific fix version was confirmed in available input data, and upgrading to the fixed release is the primary remediation. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
