How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Echo:latest open62541.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream open62541 package and not the open62541 package as distributed by Echo. See How to fix? for Echo:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

An unauthenticated remote attacker can exhaust server memory via the FindServers Discovery Service in open62541. The serverUris field of FindServersRequest is not validated for length or array size. An attacker can declare an arbitrarily large string (up to ~3.9 GB) delivered across intermediate chunks without ever sending the final chunk. The server buffers all chunks in RAM indefinitely until the SecureChannel times out. The attack is pre-session and bypasses all encryption configuration. The issue affects open62541: from 1.4.0 through 1.4.16, from 1.5.0 through 1.5.4, master.
