Tainted-regex-stdlib-flask
Tainted regex stdlib flask
The regular expression identified appears vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) through catastrophic backtracking. If the input is attacker controllable, this vulnerability can lead to systems being non-responsive or may crash due to ReDoS. Where possible, re-write the regex so as not to leverage backtracking or use a library that offers default protection against ReDoS.
Likelihood: LOW
Confidence: HIGH
CWE:
- CWE-1333: Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity
