Protego has exponential backtracking ReDoS in robots.txt URL wildcard matching

Problem descriptionProtego constructs regular expressions to match URLs against robots.txt Allow: and Disallow: directives, see protego.urlpattern.URLPattern.preparepatternforregex. Every in the directive value is translated into a lazy .? regex piece, thus a specially crafted directive value wit...

The vulnerability of the Actor.name_email_regex() function in the Python library for interacting with Git repositories in GitPython allows a malicious actor to trigger a denial-of-service attack.

The vulnerability of the Actor.nameemailregex function in the Python library for interacting with Git repositories in GitPython is related to the use of a regular expression with inefficient computational complexity. Exploiting this vulnerability could allow a malicious actor to cause service...

Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS)

Overview GitPython is a python library used to interact with Git repositories Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service ReDoS via the Actor.fromstring parsing in git/util.py. An attacker can exhaust CPU and stall commit metadata access by supplying a...

An Empirical Analysis of ReDoS Vulnerabilities and ReDoS Detection Tools

ReDoS vulnerabilities are a type of denial of service software weakness that occurs when a regex is used to validate user-supplied input. In some cases, the regex matching process can take exponential time, leading to a denial of service. In this study, we examine and compare the effectiveness of...

CVE-2026-86081 n8n: Regular Expression Denial of Service in the Default Blocked-File-Pattern Match via a Git Node Clone Path

n8n is an open source workflow automation platform. Prior to 1.123.76, 2.37.7, and 2.38.2, the Git node clone operation matched an attacker-controlled destination path against the default N8NBLOCKFILEPATTERNS regular expression. The pattern ^./.git/.$ allowed catastrophic backtracking and ran...
