Summary

OW2 ASM from 1.4.3 before 9.11 contains an excessive resource consumption flaw in Analyzer.analyze(). Crafted class files analysed through BasicVerifier, SimpleVerifier or SourceInterpreter trigger unbounded Frame allocation and fixpoint iterations (CWE-770). An attacker who can supply class files can exhaust memory and CPU, causing denial of service.

Description from the CNA

OW2 ASM 1.4.3 before 9.11 contains an excessive resource consumption vulnerability in Analyzer.analyze() that allows attackers to exhaust memory and CPU via crafted class files. Attackers can supply class files analysed through BasicVerifier, SimpleVerifier or SourceInterpreter to trigger unbounded per-instruction Frame allocation and fix point iterations, causing denial of service.
