CVE-2022-32508NVD status: Deferred

bridge_v1: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

CVE-2022-32508 is a high-severity uncontrolled resource consumption vulnerability in bridge_v1 from Nuki, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. The record lists version 1.22.0 as the first without the flaw, so updating bridge_v1 to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 1.28% chance of exploitation within 30 days, higher than 71% of scored CVEs.

Next patch cycle

High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.

What to do

  1. Update bridge_v1 to 1.22.0 or a later version.
  2. Update bridge_v2 to 2.13.2 or a later version.
  3. Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

The underlying weakness: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

The product does not properly control the allocation and maintenance of a limited resource.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Ensure that protocols have specific limits of scale placed on them.
  • Ensure that all failures in resource allocation place the system into a safe posture.
