CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

SurrealDB versions prior to 2.0.5, 2.1.5, and 2.2.2 are vulnerable due to the lack of a default execution-time limit on embedded JavaScript functions when scripting is enabled. An authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability by submitting resource-intensive scripts, potentially leading to a denial of service. Organizations using affected versions with scripting capabilities enabled should prioritize this issue to mitigate the risk of service disruption.

Original NVD Description

SurrealDB before 2.0.5, 2.1.x before 2.1.5, and 2.2.x before 2.2.2 does not enforce a default execution-time limit on embedded JavaScript scripting functions when the scripting capability is explicitly enabled (via --allow-scripting or --allow-all). An authenticated attacker can submit long-running JavaScript functions to exhaust server resources and cause a denial of service. Scripting is disabled by default.
