Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Sep 15, 2026
A regular-expression denial-of-service (ReDoS) flaw in DotVVM's routing engine (DotvvmRoute.IsMatch / DotvvmRouteParser.RouteRegex) lets a remote requester send a long, near-matching URL path and force excessive regex backtracking, tying up a worker thread for roughly one second per request. Only applications that declare routes with multiple unconstrained parameters inside a single path segment (e.g. "edit/{a}-{b}-{c}/done") are exposed; fully constrained or slash-separated routes are unaffected. The issue is fixed in DotVVM 4.2.11, 4.3.15 and 5.0.0-preview09-final, which apply a one-second regex timeout and then permanently switch the route to the .NET non-backtracking engine (or return HTTP 503 on runtimes older than .NET 8). There is no CISA KEV entry and no public exploit code identified at time of analysis, and CISA's SSVC assessment rates Exploitation as none and Automatable as no.

Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
DotVVM is an open source MVVM framework for web applications. Prior to 4.2.11, 4.3.15, and 5.0.0-preview09-final, a route containing multiple unconstrained parameters in one path segment can cause excessive regular-expression backtracking in DotvvmRoute.IsMatch when a remote requester supplies a long near-match path. DotvvmRouteParser.RouteRegex previously had no matching timeout. Patched runtimes retry with the .NET non-backtracking engine, while runtimes that do not support non-backtracking matching return HTTP 503 after the one-second timeout in DotvvmRoutingMiddleware. This issue is fixed in versions 4.2.11, 4.3.15, and 5.0.0-preview09-final.
