jsparse.c in Artifex MuJS through 1.0.2 does not properly maintain the AST depth for binary expressions, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (excessive recursion) via a crafted file.

Weakness

The product does not properly control the amount of recursion that takes place, consuming excessive resources, such as allocated memory or the program stack.
