Impact
A vulnerability exists in the a2aproject a2a-java component where the method InMemoryPushNotificationConfigStore.setInfo can be manipulated to consume excessive system resources, potentially exhausting memory or processing capacity. The flaw represents Uncontrolled Resource Consumption (CWE‑400) and Improper Resource Shutdown or Release (CWE‑404), and can lead to denial of service for the affected application.
Affected Systems
Versions of a2a-java up to and including 1.2.0.Final contain the vulnerable method. The vendor a2aproject releases the patched a2a-java with version 1.3.0.Final, which removes the insecure implementation.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score of 5.3 denotes moderate severity. EPSS data is not available, but the patch notes state that the attack can be launched remotely, implying an attacker can craft requests to trigger resource exhaustion. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, suggesting no publicly known exploits yet, but the potential for denial of service remains.
