CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedA vulnerability in rpcbind allows remote, unauthenticated attackers to trigger a Denial of Service (DoS) by flooding the service with numerous unique requests, resulting in unbounded memory growth and elevated CPU usage. This can significantly degrade or exhaust the availability of the affected service. Organizations utilizing rpcbind should prioritize addressing this issue to prevent potential service disruptions.
Original NVD Description
A flaw was found in rpcbind. This vulnerability allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by sending a large number of unique requests. The rpcbind service records previously unseen RPC (Remote Procedure Call) statistics in unbounded in-memory lists, leading to persistent memory growth and increased CPU usage. This can degrade or exhaust service availability.
