When submitting a POST request to the /dataset/new
endpoint (including either the auth cookie or the Authorization
header) with a specially-crafted field, an attacker can create an out-of-memory error in the hosting server.
To trigger this error the user needs to have permissions to create or edit datasets.
This vulnerability has been patched in CKAN 2.10.3 and 2.9.10
