SurrealDB versions before 1.1.0 contain a vulnerability in the HTTP REST API where special characters in the ID, DB, and NS headers are not properly parsed. This allows unauthenticated attackers to send crafted requests with malformed header values that cause an uncaught exception, crashing the server.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
SurrealDB prior to version 1.1.0 fails to correctly parse certain HTTP headers (ID, DB, NS) when they contain special characters. An attacker can exploit this by sending specially crafted HTTP requests with malformed header values, which leads to an uncaught exception and results in a denial-of-service condition by crashing the server. This vulnerability does not require authentication and affects the availability of the service.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to cause a denial-of-service by crashing the SurrealDB server through malformed HTTP headers. This impacts the availability of the affected system but does not indicate compromise of confidentiality or integrity based on the provided data.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a patch or official fix is available, consider implementing network-level protections such as filtering or rate limiting malformed HTTP requests targeting the affected headers to reduce exposure.
