CVE-2026-46689
Kanidm: Unauthenticated process abort via SCIM filter stack exhaustion
Description

Kanidm is an identity management platform. Prior to version 1.9.3, a single unauthenticated GET to any /scim/v1/... endpoint with a ?filter= query string of a few thousand nested parentheses (≈ 4–12 KB) drives the recursive-descent PEG parser past the worker thread's stack guard page. Rust responds to stack overflow with std::process::abort() — the entire kanidmd process exits. The parse runs inside axum's Query<ScimEntryGetQuery> extractor, before any handler body and therefore before any ACL check. This issue has been patched in version 1.9.3.

    Added Translation Title: Kanidm, Description: Kanidm es una plataforma de gestión de identidades. Antes de la versión 1.9.3, una única solicitud GET no autenticada a cualquier endpoint /scim/v1/... con una cadena de consulta ?filter= de unos pocos miles de paréntesis anidados (? 4-12 KB) lleva al analizador PEG de descenso recursivo más allá de la página de protección de pila del hilo de trabajo. Rust responde al desbordamiento de pila con std::process::abort() - el proceso kanidmd completo termina. El análisis se ejecuta dentro del extractor Query<ScimEntryGetQuery> de axum, antes de cualquier cuerpo del gestor y, por lo tanto, antes de cualquier comprobación de ACL. Este problema ha sido parcheado en la versión 1.9.3.
