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-2024-5216 exists.\n\nAffected product: Mintplexlabs Anythingllm. 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-2024-5216/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-5216/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-5216","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-5216/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-5216","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f8vg-5x7g-9fr8"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"AnythingLLM application","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause denial of service by creating users with excessively long usernames, rendering the admin panel unresponsive.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"@huntr_ai","cpe":[{"product":"anythingllm","vendor":"mintplexlabs"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-400","name":"Uncontrolled Resource Consumption"}],"description":"A vulnerability in mintplex-labs/anything-llm allows for a Denial of Service (DoS) condition due to uncontrolled resource consumption. Specifically, the issue arises from the application's failure to limit the size of usernames, enabling attackers to create users with excessively bulky texts in the username field. This exploit results in the user management panel becoming unresponsive, preventing administrators from performing critical user management actions such as editing, suspending, or deleting users. The impact of this vulnerability includes administrative paralysis, compromised security, and operational disruption, as it allows malicious users to perpetuate their presence within the system indefinitely, undermines the system's security posture, and degrades overall system performance.","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":"Denial of Service in mintplex-labs/anything-llm","id":"CVE-2024-5216","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"mintplexlabs:anythingllm","products":["mintplexlabs:anythingllm"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"ServiceNow Incomplete List of Disallowed Inputs","id":"CVE-2024-5217"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in HT Mega Addons for Elementor – Elementor Widgets \u0026 Template Builder","id":"CVE-2024-5215"},"products":["mintplex-labs/anything-llm"],"published":"2024-06-25","related":[{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Path Traversal in mintplex-labs/anything-llm","id":"CVE-2024-3025","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-04-10"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"SSRF on AWS deployed instances of AnythingLLM via /metadata","id":"CVE-2024-0455","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-25"},{"cvss_score":9.7,"headline":"AnythingLLM has a Streaming Phase XSS to RCE via LLM Response Injection","id":"CVE-2026-32626","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-13"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Remote Code Execution in mintplex-labs/anything-llm","id":"CVE-2024-3104","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-06"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"SSRF in mintplex-labs/anything-llm","id":"CVE-2024-3149","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-06"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Default user role exporting save state of instance","id":"CVE-2024-0765","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-03"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Privileged User using traversal to read system files","id":"CVE-2024-0550","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-28"}],"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":"2024-08-01","vendors":["mintplex-labs"]},"summary":"Attackers can cause denial of service by creating users with excessively long usernames, rendering the admin panel unresponsive.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-5216/"}
