description

kin-openapi versions before v0.149.0 can recurse without bound while validating requests, responses, or schemas containing circular allOf, anyOf, or oneOf references. An attacker can terminate an affected process by reaching a cyclic schema during runtime validation, provided the application accepts an attacker-controlled specification or deploys a specification with such a cycle.

mitigation

Upgrade github.com/getkin/kin-openapi to v0.149.0 or later. Until upgraded, reject or remove circular allOf, anyOf, and oneOf schema references from OpenAPI specifications used for runtime validation.

fixed in v0.149.0
