With the default configuration of tls-listener, a malicious user can open 6.4 `TcpStream`s a second, sending 0 bytes, and can trigger a DoS. The default configuration options make any public service using `TlsListener::new()` vulnerable to a slow-loris DoS attack. This impacts any publicly accessible service using the default configuration of tls-listener in versions prior to 0.10.0. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade may mitigate this by passing a large value, such as `usize::MAX` as the parameter to `Builder::max_handshakes`.\n\n","state":0,"publishedAt":"2024-03-15T18:54:58.524+00:00","modifiedAt":"2024-08-02T00:56:58.073+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"tls-listener","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"vendor\": \"tmccombs\",\n                    \"product\": \"tls-listener\",\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"< 0.10.0\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":7.5,"severity":"HIGH"}],"references":["https://github.com/tmccombs/tls-listener/security/advisories/GHSA-2qph-qpvm-2qf7","https://github.com/tmccombs/tls-listener/commit/d5a7655d6ea9e53ab57c3013092c5576da964bc4","https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slowloris_(computer_security)"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2024-28854","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2024-28854","identifiers":["CVE-2024-28854"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[]}
