NVD Description

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

brace-expansion through 5.0.6 is vulnerable to denial of service. The expand() function exhibits exponential-time complexity in the number of consecutive non-expanding '{}' brace groups. An attacker who passes a crafted string to expand(), directly or transitively, can cause significant CPU consumption and event-loop blocking. The max option does not mitigate this, as it bounds the output size rather than the recursion work.
