The urlnorm crate through 0.1.4 for Rust allows Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDos) via a crafted URL to lib.rs.

Weakness

The product uses a regular expression with an inefficient, possibly exponential worst-case computational complexity that consumes excessive CPU cycles.

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Urlnorm Urlnorm_project * 0.1.4 (including)

Extended Description

      Attackers can create crafted inputs that
      intentionally cause the regular expression to use
      excessive backtracking in a way that causes the CPU
      consumption to spike.
