Why this priority: Medium severity, with no exploitation signal.
Published · Updated · NVD status: Deferred
What it is
Requests can consume unbounded CPU, memory or connections and starve the service. Resources are not released correctly.
How it is reached
An attacker can exploit it over the network, with an ordinary user account, and nobody has to click anything.
What an attacker gains
The direct impact is limited: partial access to data or a partial outage. In practice, this kind of flaw lets an attacker exhaust CPU, memory or connections until the service stops answering.
Is it being exploited?
There is no public report of exploitation yet.
What to do
- Upgrade chenyme grok2api to 3.1.7 or later.
- Until it is patched, review who holds accounts that can reach it.
Description from NVD
A security flaw has been discovered in chenyme grok2api up to 3.1.6. Affected by this vulnerability is the function proxyVoiceWebSocket of the file backend/internal/transport/http/inference/voice_ws_handler.go of the component WebSocket Proxy. The manipulation results in resource consumption. The attack may be launched remotely. Upgrading to version 3.1.7 addresses this issue. The patch is identified as 7ad0f791f0a9eb5a0ddfe38ac4dfcef01e19a6d4. It is suggested to upgrade the affected component.
What this means for your architecture.
A CVE names a product. Whether it matters depends on where that product sits in your systems: what reaches it, which trust boundary it guards and what it can reach once compromised. Veriom maps your components, their relationships and your trust boundaries from your code, cloud and delivery evidence, so you can see where a component like this sits. The radar itself does not look at your systems.
Components it touches
- Public entry points and shared services that must stay up. The flaw sits between untrusted traffic and shared capacity.
Trust boundaries in play
- Authenticated network access. An account is needed, so exposure follows who can sign in: customers, partners or staff.
- Between untrusted traffic and shared capacity. An attacker who crosses it can exhaust CPU, memory or connections until the service stops answering.
Questions to answer about your own systems
- Where does chenyme grok2api run in your systems, and at which version?
- Which of those instances can be reached from the internet or partner networks?
- What can it reach once compromised: which data stores, secrets and services?
