An issue pertaining to CWE-400: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption was discovered in YMFE yapi v1.12.0 and allows attackers to cause a denial of service.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-70059 identifies a vulnerability classified under CWE-400, which pertains to uncontrolled resource consumption, in YMFE yapi version 1.12.0. This vulnerability allows attackers to remotely trigger excessive resource usage, leading to denial of service (DoS) conditions. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 7.5, reflecting a high severity level, with an attack vector of network (AV:N), low attack complexity (AC:L), no privileges required (PR:N), no user interaction (UI:N), and impact limited to availability (A:H) without affecting confidentiality or integrity. The vulnerability does not require authentication, making it accessible to any remote attacker. Although no known exploits have been observed in the wild, the lack of available patches increases the risk of exploitation. The issue likely arises from insufficient input validation or resource management within YMFE yapi, allowing attackers to overwhelm the system with requests or data that consume excessive CPU, memory, or other resources. This can lead to service outages or degraded performance, impacting dependent applications and users. The vulnerability is particularly concerning for organizations that expose YMFE yapi services to the internet or untrusted networks. Given the absence of patch links, mitigation currently relies on network-level controls and resource management strategies.
Potential Impact
The primary impact of CVE-2025-70059 is denial of service, which can disrupt business operations, degrade user experience, and potentially cause financial losses due to downtime. Organizations relying on YMFE yapi for critical services may face outages that affect internal workflows or customer-facing applications. The vulnerability does not compromise data confidentiality or integrity, but the loss of availability can indirectly affect trust and operational continuity. Since exploitation requires no authentication and no user interaction, the attack surface is broad, increasing the likelihood of opportunistic attacks. The absence of known exploits in the wild currently limits immediate risk, but the availability of technical details and the high severity score suggest that attackers could develop exploits rapidly. This threat is particularly impactful for sectors where YMFE yapi is widely deployed, including technology companies, service providers, and enterprises with API management needs. The potential for cascading effects exists if dependent systems rely heavily on the availability of affected services.
Mitigation Recommendations
1. Monitor official YMFE yapi channels for security advisories and apply patches promptly once available. 2. Implement rate limiting and request throttling on YMFE yapi endpoints to prevent resource exhaustion from excessive requests. 3. Deploy network-level protections such as Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) to detect and block anomalous traffic patterns indicative of DoS attempts. 4. Use resource quotas and limits at the operating system or container orchestration level to constrain CPU, memory, and network usage by YMFE yapi processes. 5. Conduct regular performance and stress testing to identify potential resource bottlenecks and improve resilience. 6. Restrict access to YMFE yapi services to trusted networks or VPNs where feasible, reducing exposure to unauthenticated attackers. 7. Implement comprehensive logging and alerting to detect unusual spikes in resource consumption early. 8. Consider deploying redundancy and failover mechanisms to maintain service availability during attack attempts.
