No affected components available
Impact
Prior to this fix, the GraphQL query parsing was vulnerable to StackOverflowErrors. The possibility of small queries resulting in stack overflow is a potential denial of service vulnerability.
This potentially affects all applications using Grackle which have untrusted users.
[!CAUTION]
No specific knowledge of an application's GraphQL schema would be required to construct a pathological query.
Patches
The stack overflow issues have been resolved in the v0.18.0 release of Grackle.
Workarounds
Users could interpose a sanitizing layer in between untrusted input and Grackle query processing.
