In client_golang prior to version 1.11.1, HTTP server is susceptible to a Denial of Service through unbounded cardinality, and potential memory exhaustion, when handling requests with non-standard HTTP methods. In order to be affected, an instrumented software must use any of `promhttp.InstrumentHandler*` middleware except `RequestsInFlight`; not filter any specific methods (e.g GET) before middleware; pass metric with `method` label name to our middleware; and not have any firewall/LB/proxy that filters away requests with unknown `method`. client_golang version 1.11.1 contains a patch for this issue. Several workarounds are available, including removing the `method` label name from counter/gauge used in the InstrumentHandler; turning off affected promhttp handlers; adding custom middleware before promhttp handler that will sanitize the request method given by Go http.Request; and using a reverse proxy or web application firewall, configured to only allow a limited set of methods."}]}, "problemtype": {"problemtype_data": [{"description": [{"lang": "en", "value": "CWE-400"}]}]}, "data_version": "4.0", "CVE_data_meta": {"ID": "CVE-2022-21698", "ASSIGNER": "security-advisories@github.com"}}, "impact": {"baseMetricV2": {"cvssV2": {"version": "2.0", "baseScore": 5.0, "accessVector": "NETWORK", "vectorString": "AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P", "authentication": "NONE", "integrityImpact": "NONE", "accessComplexity": "LOW", "availabilityImpact": "PARTIAL", "confidentialityImpact": "NONE"}, "severity": "MEDIUM", "acInsufInfo": false, "impactScore": 2.9, "obtainAllPrivilege": false, "exploitabilityScore": 10.0, "obtainUserPrivilege": false, "obtainOtherPrivilege": false, "userInteractionRequired": false}, "baseMetricV3": {"cvssV3": {"scope": "UNCHANGED", "version": "3.1", "baseScore": 7.5, "attackVector": "NETWORK", "baseSeverity": "HIGH", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H", "integrityImpact": "NONE", "userInteraction": "NONE", "attackComplexity": "LOW", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "privilegesRequired": "NONE", "confidentialityImpact": "NONE"}, "impactScore": 3.6, "exploitabilityScore": 3.9}}, "publishedDate": "2022-02-15T16:15Z", "configurations": {"nodes": [{"children": [], "operator": "OR", "cpe_match": [{"cpe23Uri": "cpe:2.3:a:prometheus:client_golang:*:*:*:*:*:go:*:*", "cpe_name": [], "vulnerable": true, "versionEndExcluding": "1.11.1"}]}], "CVE_data_version": "4.0"}, "lastModifiedDate": "2022-05-14T03:15Z"}
