CWE-19  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade org.apache.mesos:mesos to version 1.1.3-rc1, 1.2.2-rc1, 1.3.1-rc1 or higher.

Overview

org.apache.mesos:mesos is a The Apache Mesos Java API jar.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Data Handling. When handling a libprocess message wrapped in an HTTP request, libprocess in Apache Mesos before 1.1.3, 1.2.x before 1.2.2, 1.3.x before 1.3.1, and 1.4.0-dev crashes if the request path is empty, because the parser assumes the request path always starts with '/'. A malicious actor can therefore cause a denial of service of Mesos masters rendering the Mesos-controlled cluster inoperable.
