AI Analysis

Impact

A vulnerability has been discovered in Sanluan PublicCMS up to version 6.202506.d. The defect lies in the ZipSecureFile.setMinflateRatio method within DocToHtmlUtils.java, allowing an attacker to manipulate the minimum inflate ratio of ZIP streams. This manipulation consumes CPU and memory resources, resulting in a denial‑of‑service condition. The flaw can be triggered remotely, as the vulnerable function processes external ZIP inputs.

Affected Systems

Affected systems are instances of Sanluan PublicCMS, specifically any installation running version 6.202506.d or earlier. No later versions have been documented to contain the issue.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score for this vulnerability is 5.3, indicating a medium impact. The EPSS score is unavailable and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. Because the attack vector is remote, an adversary could trigger the resource drain without local access. The known CWEs (CWE‑400 and CWE‑404) suggest that the attack is based on uncontrolled resource consumption and missing bounds checking. Although no public exploit code is currently available, the medium score and remote nature of the flaw warrant cautious monitoring and prompt patching.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Sanluan PublicCMS to the latest release that removes or restricts the ZipSecureFile.setMinflateRatio function.
  • If an update is not yet available, reconfigure the application to reject or heavily limit ZIP file uploads, or enforce strict memory and CPU limits for the conversion process.
  • Modify the source (or configuration) to set the minimum inflate ratio to a safe, conservative value, thereby preventing excessive resource use.
  • Continuously monitor system resource usage for anomalous spikes during ZIP‐to‐HTML conversions and be prepared to block or throttle suspicious requests to mitigate denial‑of‑service activity.
