CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe vulnerability affects the Windows SIPA event log parser in Google go-attestation versions up to 0.6.1, allowing attackers to exploit uncontrolled recursion in the (*WinEvents).readELAMAggregation function. By submitting a specially crafted Windows event log with deeply nested elamAggregation headers, an attacker can induce a denial of service through a stack overflow, causing the verifier application to crash. Organizations using affected versions of Google go-attestation should prioritize patching to mitigate potential disruptions.

Original NVD Description
An uncontrolled recursion vulnerability in the Windows SIPA event log parser of Google go-attestation versions up to and including 0.6.1 allows an attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS). The (*WinEvents).readELAMAggregation function recurses for every nested elamAggregation sub-event without enforcing a maximum recursion depth limit, while the size guard is bypassed on recursive execution paths. By submitting a crafted Windows event log containing deeply nested elamAggregation headers, an attacker can exhaust the goroutine call stack, triggering an unrecoverable fatal runtime error (stack overflow) that immediately crashes the verifier application.
