3DescriptionCVE.org
Scriban versions from 3.0.0 through 7.2.5 contain a denial of service vulnerability in the ScriptRange.Multiply operator that bypasses LoopLimit when the left operand is a lazy sequence. Attackers can supply templates with array multiplication on lazy sequences to execute billions of uncharged iterations, pinning CPU cores and exhausting garbage collection resources even when LoopLimit is set to 1.
AnalysisAI
Scriban template engine versions 3.0.0 through 7.2.5 expose any application accepting untrusted templates to complete CPU exhaustion and garbage collection collapse via crafted array-multiplication expressions. The ScriptArray.Multiply operator fails to credit iterations against the caller-configured LoopLimit, rendering the safety mechanism entirely ineffective on this code path - even LoopLimit=1 provides no protection against the bypass. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires that the target application accepts Scriban template input from an untrusted caller - such as via a web form, API payload, or externally supplied content feed - and passes it to the Scriban engine running an unpatched version between 3.0.0 and 7.2.5 inclusive. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VA:H) confirms a worst-case exposure: the vulnerability is network-reachable, requires no authentication, no complexity prerequisites, and no additional conditions - any caller that can submit template input can trigger denial of service. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker submits a Scriban template containing an expression such as {{ [1] * 2000000000 }} to a publicly accessible web application endpoint that renders user-supplied templates. The unpatched engine begins materializing billions of array elements without incrementing the LoopLimit counter, simultaneously pinning CPU cores and triggering repeated GC cycles that exhaust available heap resources, rendering the service unresponsive within seconds on a single request. … |
| Remediation | Upstream fix is available via commits; a released patched NuGet version number is not independently confirmed from the available data - operators should monitor the official Scriban NuGet package and upgrade to the first post-7.2.5 release incorporating commits 205ca6a7c2349d3d388bd5f1f7729ee198c0d5e5 and c3f03bfc912e14b306a01a03e611f606b05f9c33, as referenced in the vendor advisory at https://github.com/scriban/scriban/security/advisories/GHSA-89cf-6hmv-8rxm. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory all applications running Scriban versions 3.0.0 through 7.2.5 and implement input validation or restrict template processing to trusted sources only. …
