It was found that cockpit before version 184 used glib's base64 decode functionality incorrectly resulting in a denial of service attack. An unauthenticated attacker could send a specially crafted request with an invalid base64-encoded cookie which could cause the web service to crash.

Se ha detectado que cockpit, en versiones anteriores a la 184, empleaba incorrectamente la funcionalidad de descodificación de base64 de glib, lo que resultaba en un ataque de denegación de servicio (DoS). Un atacante no autenticado podría enviar una petición especialmente manipulada con una cookie no válida codificada en base64, lo que podría provocar el cierre inesperado del servicio web.
