March 20, 2025
An Out-Of-Memory (OOM) vulnerability exists in the "ollama" server version 0.3.14. This vulnerability can be triggered when a malicious API server responds with a gzip bomb HTTP response, leading to the "ollama" server crashing. The vulnerability is present in the "makeRequestWithRetry" and "getAuthorizationToken" functions, which use "io.ReadAll" to read the response body. This can result in excessive memory usage and a Denial of Service (DoS) condition.
