Summary
A flaw was found in Immutable.js, a library providing persistent immutable data structures. This vulnerability occurs when specific List operations, such as List#set or List#setSize, are provided with an index or size value within a particular large range. An attacker could exploit this by providing specially crafted input, leading to an uncatchable infinite loop or unbounded memory allocation, ultimately causing a Denial of Service (DoS) for applications using the library.
Remediation
To mitigate this issue, applications should implement input validation to reject or clamp any externally supplied List index or key-path segment that exceeds a sane maximum, specifically values greater than or equal to 2^30. Additionally, running request handling in isolated worker processes with capped heap sizes (e.g., using `--max-old-space-size`) can contain the impact of a potential process abort.

01
What, why and how
Immutable.js provides many Persistent Immutable data structures. Prior to 4.3.9 and 5.1.8, List#set, List#setSize, List#setIn, List#updateIn, and the functional set, setIn, and updateIn mishandle an index or size in the range 2 ** 30 to 2 ** 31 in setListBounds in src/List.js, causing an empty List to enter an uncatchable infinite loop, a populated List to allocate without bound until process abort, or setSize to silently wrap large values. This issue is fixed in versions 4.3.9 and 5.1.8.

This issue is fixed in versions 4.3.9 and 5.1.8.
Why
The product performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value. This occurs when an integer value is incremented to a value that is too large to store in the associated representation. When this occurs, the value may become a very small or negative number.
How
An attacker operating through a network path may attempt exploitation without authentication or user interaction. If successful, the issue may cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor.

Exploit reality and attack path
CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.
Observed exploitation ?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.No confirmed evidence
No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.
Public PoC / exploit material ?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.Reference recorded
A structured CVE source labels at least one public reference as exploit material. BlackTree has not independently validated that it is safe, reliable or weaponised.
Likely attack path
a network path → Integer Overflow or Wraparound → cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor
