A flaw was found in The HashiCorp Vault, which may be susceptible to a denial of service due to an unbounded consumption of memory when handling policy requests. This issue may allow an attacker to trigger policy checks by sending multiple inbound client requests that create a logger that is never removed from memory, leading to excessive memory consumption, causing a denial of service condition.
