Details

Summary

Amazon.IonDotnet is a library for the Dotnet language that is used to read and write Amazon Ion data. An issue exists where, under certain circumstances, the library could an infinite loop, resulting in denial of service. As of August 20, 2025, this library has been deprecated and will not receive further updates.

Impacted versions:

<1.3.2

Patches

This issue has been addressed in Amazon.IonDotnet version 1.3.2. We recommend upgrading to the latest version and ensuring any forked or derivative code is patched to incorporate the new fixes.

Workarounds

Only accept data from trusted sources, written using a supported Ion library.
