Summary
There is a vulnerability in Luxon used by IBM Robotic Process Automation as part of UI infrastructure which may result in a denial of service. This bulletin identifies the security fixes to apply to address this vulnerability.
Vulnerability Details
CVEID:CVE-2023-22467
**DESCRIPTION:**Moment.js Luxon is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a regular expression denial of service (ReDoS) flaw due to the use of quadratic (N^2) complexity in the DateTime.fromRFC2822() function. By sending a specially-crafted input, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a slowdown in data process, and results in a denial of service condition.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
