graphql-go is a Go implementation of GraphQL. In versions 15.31.4 and below, the OverlappingFieldsCanBeMerged validation rule performs O(n²) pairwise comparisons of fields sharing the same response name. An attacker can send a query with thousands of repeated identical fields, causing excessive CPU usage during validation before execution begins. This is not mitigated by existing QueryDepth or QueryComplexity rules. This issue has been fixed in version 15.31.5.
jq is a command-line JSON processor. Before commit 0c7d133c3c7e37c00b6d46b658a02244fdd3c784, jq used MurmurHash3 with a hardcoded, publicly visible seed (0x432A9843) for all JSON object hash table operations, which allowed an attacker to precompute key collisions offline. By supplying a crafted JSON object (~100 KB) where all keys hashed to the same bucket, hash table lookups degraded from O(1) to O(n), turning any jq expression into an O(n²) operation and causing significant CPU exhaustion. This affected common jq use cases such as CI/CD pipelines, web services, and data processing scripts, and was far more practical to exploit than existing heap overflow issues since it required only a small payload. This issue has been patched in commit 0c7d133c3c7e37c00b6d46b658a02244fdd3c784.
Vikunja is an open-source self-hosted task management platform. Prior to 2.3.0, the addRepeatIntervalToTime function uses an O(n) loop that advances a date by the task's RepeatAfter duration until it exceeds the current time. By creating a repeating task with a 1-second interval and a due date far in the past, an attacker triggers billions of loop iterations, consuming CPU and holding a database connection for minutes per request. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.3.0.
Validating certificate chains which use policies is unexpectedly inefficient when certificates in the chain contain a very large number of policy mappings, possibly causing denial of service. This only affects validation of otherwise trusted certificate chains, issued by a root CA in the VerifyOptions.Roots CertPool, or in the system certificate pool.
CVE-2026-33033 is a medium severity vulnerability in Django versions prior to 6.0.4, 5.2.13, and 4.2.30. It involves inefficient algorithmic complexity in the MultiPartParser component, where remote attackers can degrade server performance by submitting multipart uploads with 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64' containing excessive whitespace. This issue affects specific supported versions of Django and potentially earlier unsupported versions. No official patch or remediation guidance is currently confirmed.
Suricata is a network IDS, IPS and NSM engine. Prior to version 7.0.15, inefficiency in DCERPC buffering can lead to a performance degradation. This issue has been patched in version 7.0.15.
CVE-2026-31934 is a vulnerability in OISF Suricata versions 8.0.0 through 8.0.3 where a quadratic algorithmic complexity issue occurs when searching for URLs in MIME encoded SMTP messages. This leads to a significant performance degradation. The issue has been addressed and patched in version 8.0.4.
Suricata is a network IDS, IPS and NSM engine. Prior to versions 7.0.15 and 8.0.4, specially crafted traffic can cause Suricata to slow down, affecting performance in IDS mode. This issue has been patched in versions 7.0.15 and 8.0.4.
CVE-2026-31932 is a high-severity vulnerability in OISF Suricata, a network IDS/IPS/NSM engine. It involves inefficient algorithmic complexity in the KRB5 buffering process, leading to potential performance degradation. This issue affects Suricata versions prior to 7.0.15 and versions from 8.0.0 up to but not including 8.0.4. The vulnerability has been addressed in versions 7.
Parse Server is an open source backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js. Prior to versions 8.6.68 and 9.7.0-alpha.12, the GraphQL query complexity validator can be exploited to cause a denial-of-service by sending a crafted query with binary fan-out fragment spreads. A single unauthenticated request can block the Node.js event loop for seconds, denying service to all concurrent users. This only affects deployments that have enabled the requestComplexity.graphQLDepth or requestComplexity.graphQLFields configuration options. This issue has been patched in versions 8.6.68 and 9.7.0-alpha.12.
CVE-2026-33123 is a medium severity vulnerability in the py-pdf pypdf library versions prior to 6.9.1. It allows an attacker to craft a malicious PDF that triggers uncontrolled resource consumption, causing long runtimes or excessive memory usage. Exploitation requires processing a specially crafted array-based stream with many entries, potentially leading to denial of service due to resource exhaustion. No authentication or user interaction is required, and the vulnerability affects systems that parse untrusted PDFs using vulnerable pypdf versions. The issue has been fixed in version 6.9.1. There are no known exploits in the wild currently.
### Impact
An attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which leads to long runtimes. This requires accessing a stream which uses the `/ASCIIHexDecode` filter.
### Patches
This has been fixed in [pypdf==6.7.5](https://github.com/py-pdf/pypdf/releases/tag/6.7.5).
### Workarounds
If you cannot upgrade yet, consider applying the changes from PR [#3666](https://github.com/py-pdf/pypdf/pull/3666).
minimatch is a minimal matching utility for converting glob expressions into JavaScript RegExp objects. Prior to version 10.2.3, 9.0.7, 8.0.6, 7.4.8, 6.2.2, 5.1.8, 4.2.5, and 3.1.3, `matchOne()` performs unbounded recursive backtracking when a glob pattern contains multiple non-adjacent `**` (GLOBSTAR) segments and the input path does not match. The time complexity is O(C(n, k)) -- binomial -- where `n` is the number of path segments and `k` is the number of globstars. With k=11 and n=30, a call to the default `minimatch()` API stalls for roughly 5 seconds. With k=13, it exceeds 15 seconds. No memoization or call budget exists to bound this behavior. Any application where an attacker can influence the glob pattern passed to `minimatch()` is vulnerable. The realistic attack surface includes build tools and task runners that accept user-supplied glob arguments (ESLint, Webpack, Rollup config), multi-tenant systems where one tenant configures glob-based rules that run in a shared process, admin or developer interfaces that accept ignore-rule or filter configuration as globs, and CI/CD pipelines that evaluate user-submitted config files containing glob patterns. An attacker who can place a crafted pattern into any of these paths can stall the Node.js event loop for tens of seconds per invocation. The pattern is 56 bytes for a 5-second stall and does not require authentication in contexts where pattern input is part of the feature. Versions 10.2.3, 9.0.7, 8.0.6, 7.4.8, 6.2.2, 5.1.8, 4.2.5, and 3.1.3 fix the issue.

CVE-2025-61728 is a medium severity vulnerability in the Go standard library's archive/zip package, caused by an inefficient super-linear file name indexing algorithm. When a file in a ZIP archive is opened for the first time, this algorithm is triggered, which can be exploited by a maliciously crafted ZIP archive to cause a denial of service (DoS) by consuming excessive CPU resources. The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including Go 1.25.0. Exploitation requires no privileges but does require user interaction to open a ZIP file. There are no known exploits in the wild yet, and no patches have been published at the time of this report. European organizations using Go for processing ZIP archives in network-facing or user-facing applications are at risk of service disruption. Mitigation involves avoiding untrusted ZIP files, implementing resource limits on ZIP processing, and monitoring for abnormal CPU usage. Countries with significant software development industries and critical infrastructure relying on Go, such as Germany, France, and the UK, are more likely to be impacted.
