AI-suggested

Until a fix is available, consider restricting access to the affected authentication endpoints or implementing external rate limiting to mitigate resource exhaustion.

Description

Eclipse Kura versions 5.0.0 through 5.6.2 have a vulnerability in the Web Console where each request to certain authentication endpoints allocates a new HTTP session without limits. This allows an unauthenticated attacker to cause unbounded session allocation, exhausting JVM heap memory and crashing the Kura process.
