H2O Vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) via `/3/Parse` Endpoint

High7.5CVE-2024-10549 · Published Mar 20, 2025 · updated Jul 7, 2026

A vulnerability in the `/3/Parse` endpoint of h2oai/h2o-3 version 3.46.0.1 allows for a denial of service (DoS) attack. The endpoint uses a user-specified string to construct a regular expression, which is then applied to another user-specified string. By sending multiple simultaneous requests, an attacker can exhaust all available threads, leading to a complete denial of service.
