Executive Summary

This vulnerability affects guzzlehttp/guzzle versions before 7.15.1. It is a denial of service issue in the CookieJar component where the system accepts unlimited Set-Cookie header fields without size restrictions. Attackers can exploit this by sending many large cookies from a malicious server, causing Guzzle to store excessive data in memory and generate oversized Cookie headers that fail in handlers or destination servers.

Detection Guidance

Check Guzzle version with: composer show guzzlehttp/guzzle. If version is below 7.15.1, the system is vulnerable. Monitor memory usage for unexpected spikes during HTTP requests.

Impact Analysis

The impact includes potential denial of service where applications using vulnerable Guzzle versions may crash or become unresponsive due to excessive memory usage. Oversized Cookie headers can also cause failures in downstream systems or handlers that process these requests.

Mitigation Strategies

Upgrade Guzzle to version 7.15.1 or later using: composer require guzzlehttp/guzzle:^7.15.1. If upgrading is not possible, implement rate limiting and validate Set-Cookie header sizes.
