DescriptionCVE.org

The Apache Traffic Server ts_lua plugin mishandles initialization, transform context, and per-instance state.

This issue affects Apache Traffic Server: from 8.0.0 through 8.1.9, from 9.0.0 through 9.2.14, from 10.0.0 through 10.1.3.

Users are recommended to upgrade to version 9.2.15 or 10.1.4, which fix the issue.

AnalysisAI

Denial of service in Apache Traffic Server (versions 8.0.0-8.1.9, 9.0.0-9.2.14, and 10.0.0-10.1.3) arises from the ts_lua plugin mishandling initialization, transform context, and per-instance state, allowing remote unauthenticated attackers to exhaust or corrupt resource state and crash or hang the proxy (CVSS 4.0 base 8.2, availability-only impact). Exploitation carries an attack requirement (AT:P), meaning a specific condition beyond the attacker's control must hold, and only deployments that actually load the ts_lua scripting plugin are affected. …

Impact

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires that the target Apache Traffic Server instance has the ts_lua plugin loaded and active (configured via plugin.config or per-remap in remap.config) - proxies without ts_lua are not affected. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The signals are internally consistent but point to a moderate, not top-tier, real-world priority. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker who can send HTTP requests to an internet-facing ATS proxy that has the ts_lua plugin enabled repeatedly triggers the mishandled transform/per-instance state path, causing the proxy to leak or exhaust resources until it crashes or stops serving traffic. Because the CVSS attack requirement is Present (AT:P), the attacker needs the right condition to be met - such as a specific ts_lua hook or transform being configured - rather than any arbitrary request. …
Remediation Vendor-released patch: upgrade to Apache Traffic Server 9.2.15 (for the 9.x line) or 10.1.4 (for the 10.x line), per the Apache advisory at https://lists.apache.org/thread/5prl9glcm9g2swnq9hqxvnokylm1gr6d; note that the 8.x line (8.0.0-8.1.9) is listed as affected but no fixed 8.x release is named, so 8.x operators should plan a migration to a patched 9.2.15+ or 10.1.4+ release. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, identify all Apache Traffic Server instances running versions 8.0.0-8.1.9, 9.0.0-9.2.14, or 10.0.0-10.1.3 and determine which have the ts_lua plugin enabled; disable the ts_lua module where operationally feasible to eliminate the attack surface. …
