# a2ui: data-context resolver flaw lets remote requests exhaust resources

The a2ui web renderer's data-context resolver, in renderers/web_core/src/v0_9/rendering/data-context.ts, mishandles certain input. A remote attacker can make it consume excessive resources, and a public exploit has been disclosed.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Check whether the installed a2ui version is `0.10.6` or lower.
- Look for `renderers/web_core/src/v0_9/rendering/data-context.ts` in the deployed code and compare it with the patched commit.

## Fix

- Move to a2ui code that includes commit `eb314e14fabd29cfb4a74e1202afc4fe2081efa2`; the sources do not give a fixed release version, so the version is unknown.

## Timeline
