Technical details
The vulnerability exposes an unauthenticated, unthrottled route that dynamically generates Scramble-based OpenAPI schema documentation, serving it without application-level caching. Remote attackers can exhaust server CPU by repeated requests and obtain a complete enumeration of API endpoints and parameter schemas. The fix in 7.7.0 adds middleware to restrict access and implements caching to prevent regeneration on each request.
