CVE-2023-26248

Oct. 28, 2024, 1:58 p.m.

CVSS Score

5.3 / 10

Product(s) Impacted

IPFS

  • 0.18.1 and earlier

go-libp2p-kad-dht

  • 0.20.0 and earlier

Description

The Kademlia DHT (go-libp2p-kad-dht 0.20.0 and earlier) used in IPFS (0.18.1 and earlier) assigns routing information for content (i.e., information about who holds the content) to be stored by peers whose peer IDs have a small DHT distance from the content ID. This allows an attacker to censor content by generating many Sybil peers whose peer IDs have a small distance from the content ID, thus hijacking the content resolution process.

Weaknesses

CWE-352
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)

The web application does not, or can not, sufficiently verify whether a well-formed, valid, consistent request was intentionally provided by the user who submitted the request.
