Description Patrick Del Bello 2024-07-18 05:05:35 UTC 
The REST compare API has buffer leak issue in RHDG, and I have
confirmed that "OutOfMemoryError: Direct buffer memory" can occur when
sending a request with some extent size of POST data (like 1MiB) to the
REST API continually.

As the REST endpoint is secured (= authentication is required) by default
in RHDG, it's not possible for anonymous attackers to utilize this issue.
However, a malicious user can utilize this issue for DoS attack.
Hence.
