CVE-2022-29177 (GCVE-0-2022-29177)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2022-05-20 16:20 – Updated: 2025-04-23 18:24

Title

DoS via malicious p2p message in Go-Ethereum

Summary

Go Ethereum is the official Golang implementation of the Ethereum protocol. Prior to version 1.10.17, a vulnerable node, if configured to use high verbosity logging, can be made to crash when handling specially crafted p2p messages sent from an attacker node. Version 1.10.17 contains a patch that addresses the problem. As a workaround, setting loglevel to default level (`INFO`) makes the node not vulnerable to this attack.

Severity

GHSA-WJXW-GH3M-7PM5

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-24 20:54 – Updated: 2022-06-07 14:30

Summary

DoS via malicious p2p message in Go Ethereum

Details

Impact

A vulnerable node, if configured to use high verbosity logging, can be made to crash when handling specially crafted p2p messages sent from an attacker node.

Patches

The following PR addresses the problem: https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/pull/24507

Workarounds

Aside from applying the PR linked above, setting loglevel to default level (INFO) makes the node not vulnerable to this attack.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
