CVE-2022-31099 Information

Description

rulex is a new portable regular expression language. When parsing untrusted rulex expressions the stack may overflow possibly enabling a Denial of Service attack. This happens when parsing an expression with several hundred levels of nesting causing the process to abort immediately. This is a security concern for you if your service parses untrusted rulex expressions (expressions provided by an untrusted user) and your service becomes unavailable when the process running rulex aborts due to a stack overflow. The crash is fixed in version 0.4.3. Affected users are advised to update to this version. There are no known workarounds for this issue.
