NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream katello-service package and not the katello-service package as distributed by RHEL.

Katello allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via the (1) mode parameter in the setup_utils function in content_search_controller.rb or (2) action parameter in the respond function in api/api_controller.rb in app/controllers/katello/, which is passed to the to_sym method.
