description

json-glib packages associated with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 and the listed OpenShift CoreOS images may be affected. An attacker may cause an application to hang and deny service if the application evaluates untrusted JSONPath expressions.

mitigation

Do not evaluate JSONPath expressions supplied by untrusted users, and restrict access to application features that accept them. Monitor Red Hat package updates and apply a vendor-provided update when one is released.
