SurrealDB before 1.1.0 Uncontrolled Recursion Denial of Service

CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.

No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

SurrealDB versions before 1.1.0 fail to enforce recursion depth limits when parsing nested SurrealQL statements including IF, RELATE, and attribute access idioms. Authorized attackers can submit queries with excessive nesting depth to cause stack overflow and crash the server.

In some specific instances, the SurrealQL parser will attempt to recursively parse nested statements or idioms (i.e. nested `IF` and `RELATE` statements, nested basic idioms and nested access to attributes) without checking if the depth limit established by default or in the `SURREAL_MAX_COMPUTATION_DEPTH` environment variable is exceeded. This can lead to the stack overflowing when the nesting surpasses certain levels of depth. ### Impact An attacker that is authorized to run queries on a SurrealDB server may be able to run a query using the affected statements and idioms with very deep nesting in order to crash the server, leading to denial of service. ### Patches - Version 1.1.0 and later are not affected by this issue. ### Workarounds Concerned users unable to update may want to limit the ability of untrusted users to run arbitrary SurrealQL queries in the affected versions of SurrealDB. To limit the impact of the denial of service, SurrealDB administrators may also want to ensure that the SurrealDB process is running so that it can be automatically re-started after a crash. ### References - https://bugs.chromium.org/p/oss-fuzz/issues/detail?id=62410 - https://bugs.chromium.org/p/oss-fuzz/issues/detail?id=62652 - https://bugs.chromium.org/p/oss-fuzz/issues/detail?id=63797 - https://bugs.chromium.org/p/oss-fuzz/issues/detail?id=64445 - https://bugs.chromium.org/p/oss-fuzz/issues/detail?id=64731 - https://bugs.chromium.org/p/oss-fuzz/issues/detail?id=65277
