An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-4603 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: OpenSSL. 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-2024-4603/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-4603/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-4603","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-4603/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-4603","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2024-4603","AZL-42049","AZL-42058","AZL-42063","AZL-42694","AZL-42766","AZL-47684","AZL-78534","BELL-CVE-2024-4603","CLEANSTART-2026-RF04086","CLSA-2024-1735121358","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-4603","GHSA-85xr-ghj6-6m46","JLSEC-2026-250","OESA-2025-1326","OESA-2025-1327","SUSE-SU-2024:1789-1","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-4603","openSUSE-SU-2024:13992-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"OpenSSL cryptographic library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause denial of service by supplying excessively long DSA keys to applications using specific OpenSSL validation functions.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"openssl","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-834","name":"Excessive Iteration"},{"id":"CWE-606","name":"Unchecked Input for Loop Condition"}],"description":"Issue summary: Checking excessively long DSA keys or parameters may be very\nslow.\n\nImpact summary: Applications that use the functions EVP_PKEY_param_check()\nor EVP_PKEY_public_check() to check a DSA public key or DSA parameters may\nexperience long delays.
