✅ Remediation

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. For details on how to apply this update, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 Workaround: 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.
