How to fix?

There is no fixed version for dbgpt.

Overview

dbgpt is a DB-GPT is an experimental open-source project that uses localized GPT large models to interact with your data and environment. With this solution, you can beassured that there is no risk of data leakage, and your data is 100% private and secure.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) through the multipart request boundary processing mechanism. An attacker can cause excessive resource consumption by appending excessive characters to the end of multipart boundaries.

Details

Denial of Service (DoS) describes a family of attacks, all aimed at making a system inaccessible to its intended and legitimate users.

Unlike other vulnerabilities, DoS attacks usually do not aim at breaching security. Rather, they are focused on making websites and services unavailable to genuine users resulting in downtime.

One popular Denial of Service vulnerability is DDoS (a Distributed Denial of Service), an attack that attempts to clog network pipes to the system by generating a large volume of traffic from many machines.

When it comes to open source libraries, DoS vulnerabilities allow attackers to trigger such a crash or crippling of the service by using a flaw either in the application code or from the use of open source libraries.

Two common types of DoS vulnerabilities:

  • High CPU/Memory Consumption- An attacker sending crafted requests that could cause the system to take a disproportionate amount of time to process. For example, commons-fileupload:commons-fileupload.

  • Crash - An attacker sending crafted requests that could cause the system to crash. For Example, npm ws package
