CVE-2024-58380: Improper Input Validation in pmmp PocketMine-MP
PocketMine-MP versions prior to 5.11.2 have a denial of service vulnerability triggered by improper input validation in handling BookEditPacket. Specifically, sending a BookEditPacket with an inventory slot value greater than 35 causes an unhandled exception that crashes the server. This vulnerability allows attackers with limited privileges to disrupt server availability.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2024-58380 describes a denial of service vulnerability in PocketMine-MP before version 5.11.2. The flaw exists in the processing of BookEditPacket messages, where the server does not properly validate the inventory slot value. If an attacker sends a crafted packet with an inventory slot number exceeding 35, it triggers an unhandled exception, causing the server to crash. This vulnerability requires low attack complexity and no user interaction, but does require some privileges (PR:L).
Potential Impact
An attacker can cause a denial of service by crashing the PocketMine-MP server, resulting in service disruption. There is no indication of privilege escalation, data disclosure, or code execution from the provided information.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or remediation is currently confirmed. Users should upgrade to PocketMine-MP version 5.11.2 or later once available, as the vulnerability affects versions prior to 5.11.2. Until then, monitor vendor advisories for updates and consider restricting access to trusted users to reduce risk.
