Severity

6.5 (Medium) CVSS_V3 - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H CVSS Calculator

Summary

Synapse V2 state resolution weakness allows Denial of Service (DoS)

Details

Impact

A remote Matrix user with malicious intent, sharing a room with Synapse instances before 1.105.1, can dispatch specially crafted events to exploit a weakness in how the auth chain cover index is calculated. This can induce high CPU consumption and accumulate excessive data in the database of such instances, resulting in a denial of service.

Servers in private federations, or those that do not federate, are not affected.

Patches

Server administrators should upgrade to 1.105.1 or later.

Workarounds

One can: - ban the malicious users or ACL block servers from the rooms; and/or - leave the room and purge the room using the admin API
