  "details" : [ "OpenTelemetry JavaScript is the OpenTelemetry JavaScript client. Prior to 2.9.0, @opentelemetry/propagator-jaeger decodes incoming uber-trace-id and uberctx-* HTTP header values with decodeURIComponent() without handling decode errors, allowing an unauthenticated remote attacker to send a malformed percent-encoded value that throws an uncaught URIError and terminates a Node.js process using JaegerPropagator as the active propagator. This issue is fixed in version 2.9.0.", "A flaw was found in the `@opentelemetry/propagator-jaeger` component of OpenTelemetry JavaScript. This vulnerability allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to send specially crafted HTTP header values, specifically `uber-trace-id` and `uberctx-*`. The component improperly decodes these values without handling potential errors, leading to an uncaught `URIError`. Successful exploitation of this flaw can terminate a Node.js process, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS)." ],
  "statement" : "This flaw affects the @opentelemetry/propagator-jaeger package used by container images that configure the Jaeger trace-context propagator. Exploitation requires an unauthenticated remote actor to send a crafted uber-trace-id or uberctx-* HTTP header value to a service using JaegerPropagator as its active OpenTelemetry propagator, causing an unhandled URIError that terminates the Node.js process (Denial of Service). Red Hat CVSS score (7.5, Important) is consistent with upstream and NVD scoring.",
