A vulnerability has been found in java-json-tools json-patch up to 1.13. Affected by this vulnerability is the function JsonPatch.apply of the file src/main/java/com/github/fge/jsonpatch/JsonPatch.java of the component Patch Operation Handler. The manipulation leads to resource consumption. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
AnalysisAI
Uncontrolled resource consumption in java-json-tools json-patch up to version 1.13 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to trigger service degradation by sending crafted JSON Patch documents to the JsonPatch.apply() handler. The vulnerability resides in the Patch Operation Handler component and carries no confidentiality or integrity impact - purely availability. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The application must expose an endpoint that accepts externally-supplied JSON Patch documents and passes them to JsonPatch.apply() without prior size or operation-count validation. … 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/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L) scores 5.5 - reflecting low attack complexity and no authentication requirement, but only limited availability impact on the vulnerable system with no subsequent-system impact. … 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 | A patch is noted as available from the vendor GitHub repository (https://github.com/java-json-tools/json-patch/); however, a specific fixed release version is not independently confirmed from available data - the upstream fix appears to be in repository commits rather than a tagged release. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
