"Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling in ueberauth guardian allows denial of service via unbounded atom creation from attacker-influenced binary input.\n\nGuardian.Plug.Keys derives connection and session namespace keys by passing arbitrary binaries to String.to_atom/1. base_key/1 in lib/guardian/plug/keys.ex converts any binary into the atom :\"guardian_<input>\", and the derived helpers claims_key/1, resource_key/1, and token_key/1 create a second atom on top of that. key_from_other/1 likewise converts a regex-captured binary through String.to_atom/1. The public specs advertise String.t() as a valid argument, so passing a string is documented usage, and higher-level entry points such as Guardian.Plug.current_token(conn, key: key) thread the caller-supplied key straight into these functions.\n\nString.to_atom/1 creates a brand-new atom for every previously unseen binary, atoms are never garbage collected, and the BEAM atom table is fixed at roughly 1,048,576 entries by default. An application that routes attacker-influenced data (a tenant identifier, header, or other request input) into a Guardian key therefore mints one permanent atom per distinct value. A modest stream of varied, unauthenticated input permanently consumes the atom table and crashes the BEAM node, taking down every application running on it.\n\nThis issue affects guardian: from 0.1.0 before 2.4.1."}, {"lang": "es", "value": "La asignaci\u00f3n de recursos sin l\u00edmites ni estrangulamiento en ueberauth guardian permite la denegaci\u00f3n de servicio a trav\u00e9s de la creaci\u00f3n ilimitada de \u00e1tomos a partir de entrada binaria influenciada por el atacante.\n\nGuardian.Plug.Keys deriva claves de espacio de nombres de conexi\u00f3n y de sesi\u00f3n pasando binarios arbitrarios a String.to_atom/1. base_key/1 en lib/guardian/plug/keys.ex convierte cualquier binario en el \u00e1tomo :\u201cguardian_[input]\u201d, y las funciones auxiliares derivadas claims_key/1, resource_key/1 y token_key/1 crean un segundo \u00e1tomo adem\u00e1s de eso. key_from_other/1 de manera similar convierte un binario capturado por regex a trav\u00e9s de String.to_atom/1. Las especificaciones p\u00fablicas anuncian String.t() como un argumento v\u00e1lido, por lo que pasar una cadena es un uso documentado, y los puntos de entrada de nivel superior, como Guardian.Plug.current_token(conn, key: key), pasan la clave proporcionada por el llamador directamente a estas funciones.\n\nString.to_atom/1 crea un \u00e1tomo completamente nuevo para cada binario no visto anteriormente, los \u00e1tomos nunca son recolectados por el recolector de basura, y la tabla de \u00e1tomos de BEAM est\u00e1 fijada en aproximadamente 1.048.576 entradas por defecto.
