Description
A flaw was found in React Server Components. This vulnerability allows a denial of service via unsafe deserialization of payloads from HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) requests to Server Function endpoints. A malicious HTTP request can be crafted and sent to any App Router endpoint that, when deserialized, can cause the server process to hang and consume CPU. This can result in denial of service.
Statement
No Red Hat software includes the directly affected React Server Components packages (react-server-dom-parcel, react-server-dom-turbopack, react-server-dom-webpack). However, the reference implementation of React Server Components is used by other projects such as Next.js. The packages listed here include Next.js as a dependency, but our analysis indicates that they are not affected by the vulnerability as they do not use the App Router functionality that exposes endpoints serving the vulnerable protocol.
