A Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability exists in the brycedrennan/imaginairy repository, version 15.0.0. The vulnerability is present in the /api/stablestudio/generate endpoint, which can be exploited by sending an invalid request. This causes the server process to terminate abruptly, outputting KILLED in the terminal, and results in the unavailability of the server. This issue disrupts the servers functionality, affecting all users.
The product does not properly control the allocation and maintenance of a limited resource.
Mitigation of resource exhaustion attacks requires that the target system either:
The first of these solutions is an issue in itself though, since it may allow attackers to prevent the use of the system by a particular valid user. If the attacker impersonates the valid user, they may be able to prevent the user from accessing the server in question.
The second solution is simply difficult to effectively institute – and even when properly done, it does not provide a full solution. It simply makes the attack require more resources on the part of the attacker.
