CVE-2022-31075Network attack vector

Authenticated CloudHub crash via unbounded request body

Published Jul 11, 2022 · Updated Apr 23, 2025

Resource exhaustion in KubeEdge before 1.9.4, 1.10.0 through 1.10.1, and 1.11.0 allows remote authenticated users to crash CloudHub. The CloudHub /edge.crt path reads the entire HTTP request body into memory without a size limit, so a body exceeding available memory terminates the service. Exploitation requires authorization and an enabled CloudHub module; the bounded consequence is interruption of the CloudHub HTTP service.
