CVE intelligence and bounded remediation

CVE-2026-42343 — FastGPT is an AI Agent building platform

Medium CVSS 6.3

FastGPT is an AI Agent building platform. In versions 4.14.13 and prior, the code-sandbox component suffers from insufficient resource isolation and uncontrolled resource consumption. The service relies solely on an application-level soft limit (a 500ms polling interval) for memory management and lacks strict OS-level constraints such as cgroups or kernel-level namespaces. This architectural weakness allows attackers to easily bypass memory checks via time-window attacks, or exhaust the entire JavaScript worker pool via concurrent CPU-intensive requests, resulting in a complete Denial of Service (DoS) for legitimate users. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

Matched remediation archetype

Resource exhaustion and denial of service

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Identify attacker-influenced work factors including input size, nesting, compression, fan-out, regex cost, allocation, recursion, retries, and connection lifetime.
  • Map per-request and shared CPU, memory, disk, descriptor, thread, queue, and downstream-service limits.
  • Determine whether authentication, tenancy, quotas, and rate controls apply before expensive processing begins.

Remediate safely

  • Bound input size, nesting, expansion, work, concurrency, queue depth, retries, and execution time before resource-intensive processing.
  • Release resources on every success, error, cancellation, and timeout path and use backpressure instead of unbounded buffering.
  • Update affected components and add small deterministic tests that assert resource ceilings rather than exhausting a host.
