js-yaml: js-yaml: Denial of Service via quadratic CPU time parsing with merge keys

A flaw was found in js-yaml, a JavaScript YAML parser and dumper. When merge keys are enabled, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by crafting a YAML document where a chain of mappings uses merge keys, each merging the previous one. This can lead to a significant increase in CPU ti...

js-yaml: js-yaml: Denial of Service via crafted YAML ordered-map document

A flaw was found in js-yaml, a JavaScript YAML YAML Ain't Markup Language parser. An attacker could exploit this by providing a specially crafted YAML ordered-map document. This could lead to excessive CPU consumption, resulting in a denial of service DoS for applications processing the malicious...

CVE-2026-53550

A flaw was found in js-yaml, a JavaScript YAML parser and dumper. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability by providing a specially crafted YAML document that repeatedly uses the same alias in a merge sequence. This can lead to algorithmic CPU exhaustion, causing the Node.js worker or eve...

UBUNTU-CVE-2026-53550

js-yaml is a JavaScript YAML parser and dumper. Prior to 4.2.0 and 3.15.0, a crafted YAML document can trigger algorithmic CPU exhaustion in js-yaml merge-key processing by repeating the same alias many times in a merge sequence. This causes quadratic parse-time behavior relative to input size an...

Symfony's YAML Parser has a ReDoS via Catastrophic Backtracking in Parser::cleanup() Regex

Description Symfony\Component\Yaml\Parser::cleanup strips the optional %YAML directive header, leading comments, and document start/end markers before parsing. The original regexes contained overlapping quantifiers, most notably '^%YAML: \d.+.\nu', whose \d.+ and . overlap on the dot, that exhibi...
