Impact: Moderate Public Date: 2019-03-04 CWE: CWE-121 Bugzilla: 1687364: CVE-2018-11793 mesos: stack overflow vulnerability in parser When parsing a JSON payload with deeply nested JSON structures, the parser in Apache Mesos versions pre-1.4.x, 1.4.0 to 1.4.2, 1.5.0 to 1.5.1, 1.6.0 to 1.6.1, and 1.7.0 might overflow the stack due to unbounded recursion. A malicious actor can therefore cause a denial of service of Mesos masters rendering the Mesos-controlled cluster inoperable.
