-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 AdaCore Security Advisory ========================= SA-2012-L119-003 Hash collisions in AWS Problem: Impacted versions of AWS store key/value pairs from submitted form data in hash tables using a hash function that has predictable collisions. As a result, a single specially crafted HTTP request can cause the server to use hours of CPU time, thus causing a denial of service. Impact: All AWS releases and wavefronts prior to 2012-01-21 Status: This was fixed in AWS 2.11 and 2.10.2 on 2012-01-21 References: n.runs-SA-2011.004 http://www.nruns.com/_downloads/advisory28122011.pdf Effective Denial of Service attacks against web application platforms :: AWS round http://ogrod2.blogspot.com/2012/01/28c3-effective-denial-of-service.html AWS http://www.adacore.com/home/products/gnatpro/add-on_technologies/web_technologies http://forge.open-do.org/projects/aws/ History: 2012-01-27 First published -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAk8iwlEACgkQK8Lr/hUfADYemQCdHUyHQWMRikkF2XO0n1KSINCt NbYAoMyczgLV2Bt+aok73Cp90A8tBmEe =XT3i -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
