An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-25824 exists.\n\nAffected product: airtower-luna mod_gnutls. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-25824/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-25824/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-25824","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-25824/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-25824","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6cfv-fvgm-7pc8","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-25824"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Apache TLS module","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can cause a denial of service by triggering an infinite loop in mod_gnutls during TLS read timeouts, consuming CPU resources.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"mod_gnutls","vendor":"mod_gnutls_project"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-835","name":"Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition"}],"description":"Mod_gnutls is a TLS module for Apache HTTPD based on GnuTLS. Versions from 0.9.0 to 0.12.0 (including) did not properly fail blocking read operations on TLS connections when the transport hit timeouts. Instead it entered an endless loop retrying the read operation, consuming CPU resources. This could be exploited for denial of service attacks. If trace level logging was enabled, it would also produce an excessive amount of log output during the loop, consuming disk space. The problem has been fixed in commit d7eec4e598158ab6a98bf505354e84352f9715ec, please update to version 0.12.1. There are no workarounds, users who cannot update should apply the errno fix detailed in the security advisory.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"mod_gnutls contains Infinite Loop on request read timeout","id":"CVE-2023-25824","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"ZoneMinder contains Cross-site Scripting via log viewing","id":"CVE-2023-25825"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Gradio contains Use of Hard-coded Credentials","id":"CVE-2023-25823"},"products":["mod_gnutls"],"published":"2023-02-23","related":[{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"mod_gnutils has stack-based buffer overflow caused by a long client certificate chain","id":"CVE-2026-33307","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-24"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-5144","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-02-03"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"mod_gnutls missing key purpose check in client certificate verification","id":"CVE-2026-33308","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-24"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-03-10","vendors":["airtower-luna"]},"summary":"An attacker can cause a denial of service by triggering an infinite loop in mod_gnutls during TLS read timeouts, consuming CPU resources.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-25824/"}
