NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ublock-origin package and not the ublock-origin package as distributed by Debian.
See How to fix? for Debian:unstable relevant fixed versions and status.
uBlock Origin before 1.36.2 and nMatrix before 4.4.9 support an arbitrary depth of parameter nesting for strict blocking, which allows crafted web sites to cause a denial of service (unbounded recursion that can trigger memory consumption and a loss of all blocking functionality).
