CVE-2026-124683 eclipse foundation eclipse langium: Inefficient Algorithmic Complexity

8.7 highEPSS 0.5%

High (8.7) in eclipse foundation eclipse langium. EPSS 0.5% estimated probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.

On this page
Eclipse Langium versions 3.2.0 through 4.4.0 contain an inefficient algorithmic complexity issue (CWE-407) in the opt-in IndentationAwareTokenBuilder and IndentationAwareLexer. When producing DEDENT tokens, the token builder recomputes line numbers by re-scanning the entire preceding document text. A document whose indentation changes on most lines then takes quadratic time to tokenize. Because tokenization is synchronous, a crafted document of a few hundred kilobytes can block the Node.js event loop for tens of seconds. That causes a DoS for every user served by the same process. Languages built with the DefaultLexer and DefaultTokenBuilder are unaffected.

If they give no fixed versions, use the CVE record https://cveawg.mitre.org/api/cve/CVE-2026-124683 or the vendor advisory, not third-party mirrors. Tell me how to check whether I am affected and how to verify a fix. Cite the sources and say where they are uncertain.
