CVE-2024-8049Network attack vector

Application interruption via unbounded unsupported-feature document import

Published Nov 13, 2024 · Updated Nov 13, 2024

Excessive iteration in Progress Telerik Document Processing Libraries before 2024.4.1106 allows remote authenticated users to interrupt applications. The document import path repeatedly processes unsupported features without an execution bound, consuming computing resources. Reachability requires an application to accept and import attacker-controlled documents; successful exploitation makes that application process unavailable.
