# Apache OFBiz: unauthenticated request can pin server threads with huge loops

A single small HTTP request to Apache OFBiz can make the server run its service handler up to the signed-integer maximum number of times by encoding a huge row count in parameter names. An unauthenticated remote attacker can tie up request threads and cause denial of service.

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

## How to check

- Check the installed OFBiz version; affected versions are 24.09 before `24.09.08`
- Confirm whether the deployment is a stock configuration reachable from the internet, since the description says no authentication or CSRF requirement applies on a stock deployment

## Fix

- Apache OFBiz: upgrade to `24.09.08`

## From the sources

Uncontrolled Resource Consumption in ServiceMultiEventHandler in Apache OFBiz 24.09 before 24.09.08 on all platforms allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to pin a server request thread for an attacker-chosen number of synchronous service dispatches, up to the signed-integer maximum, by submitting a single small HTTP request whose parameter names encode a row count via the "o" suffix used by multi-form submissions, because UtilHttp.getMultiFormRowCount derives that count from the largest such suffix with no upper bound and ServiceMultiEventHandler.invoke then loops that many times calling dispatcher.runSync, with the request-map for getFinAccountTransRunningTotalAndBalances reaching this handler with no authentication or CSRF requirement on a stock deployment. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 24.09.08, which fixes this issue.
