{"cve":"CVE-2026-82752","nvd":{"published":"2026-09-05T18:17:29.170","modified":"2026-09-08T19:20:01.577","status":"Deferred","description":"Improper Validation of Specified Quantity in Input vulnerability in ash-project ash allows an attacker to store a value of arbitrary size in an attribute whose length constraint should bound it.\n\nAsh measures string length with Elixir's String.length/1, which counts Unicode graphemes, in the max_length and min_length constraints of Ash.Type.String (apply_constraints/2 in lib/ash/type/string.ex), in Ash.Resource.Validation.StringLength, and in the string_length expression function. A grapheme carries an unbounded number of combining marks, so a base character followed by a million combining acute accents is one grapheme and megabytes of data, and satisfies max_length: 2. Where the data layer imposes no independent limit (ETS, Mnesia, or a Postgres text column) the whole value is persisted, so an attacker can write an entire request body into an attribute declared with a small maximum and grow storage without bound.\n\nThe counting unit also disagrees with the storage layer, which counts codepoints rather than graphemes, so a value accepted by the constraint can still be rejected or truncated by the column. A Postgres varchar(n) column bounds the value itself and is not exposed.\n\nThis issue affects ash: from 0.10.0 before 3.33.0.","cvss_v4":{"vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","score":5.9},"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":["CWE-1284"],"references":["https://cna.erlef.org/cves/CVE-2026-82752.html","https://github.com/ash-project/ash/commit/a64cab49b8886503e6b7c7b211d83c475aac48ca","https://github.com/ash-project/ash/commit/cdbf4c4da6bda5f6f139078f01a64320b595216d","https://github.com/ash-project/ash/security/advisories/GHSA-cwjv-574p-59f6","https://osv.dev/vulnerability/EEF-CVE-2026-82752"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:52:03.409947763+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-82752","score":0.0018,"percentile":0.07564,"date":"2026-11-01"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
