Description

dfir-unfurl through 20250810 contains an unbounded zlib decompression vulnerability in parse_compressed.py that allows remote attackers to cause denial of service. Attackers can submit highly compressed payloads via URL parameters to the /json/visjs endpoint that expand to gigabytes, exhausting server memory and crashing the service.

Analysis

Unbounded zlib decompression in dfir-unfurl versions through 20250810 enables unauthenticated remote attackers to exhaust server memory via crafted compressed payloads submitted to the /json/visjs endpoint. Attackers can submit highly compressed data that expands to gigabytes when decompressed, crashing the service through resource exhaustion. …

Sign in for full analysis, threat intelligence, and remediation guidance.

Remediation

Within 24 hours: Disable or restrict network access to the /json/visjs endpoint on all dfir-unfurl instances; document affected systems and their criticality. Within 7 days: Implement input validation and decompression size limits at the application or WAF level; monitor for unusual compressed payload submissions. …
