A vulnerability in lunary-ai/lunary, as of commit be54057, allows users to upload and execute arbitrary regular expressions on the server side. This can lead to a Denial of Service (DoS) condition, as certain regular expressions can cause excessive resource consumption, blocking the server from processing other requests.

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
Lunary Lunary * 1.4.23 (excluding)

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.
