Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
An issue pertaining to CWE-400: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption was discovered in YMFE yapi v1.12.0 and allows attackers to cause a denial of service.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · low confidence

CWE-400 vulnerability in YMFE yapi v1.12.0 allows attackers to cause denial of service through uncontrolled resource consumption. The specific mechanism of resource exhaustion is not detailed in the available information.

MitigationImplement rate limiting, request throttling, and resource quotas on API endpoints to prevent uncontrolled resource consumption. Upgrade to a patched version if available.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify installed YAPI version
    Locate the YAPI installation and check its version. Common methods include: examining package.json in the installation directory, querying the running process, or using the API's version endpoint if available (e.g., /api/user/status or similar). Compare the found version against the affected version 1.12.0.
    Affected if The installed YAPI version is exactly 1.12.0
  2. Verify YAPI service is running
    Confirm the YAPI application is actively running and accessible on the network. Check running processes for node/yapi instances, or test connectivity to the YAPI web interface or API endpoints.
    Affected if YAPI is running and processing requests (required for resource exhaustion to occur)
  3. Inspect rate limiting configuration
    Examine YAPI's configuration files (commonly config.json or similar in the installation directory) for any rate limiting, request throttling, or resource quota settings. Also check if a reverse proxy or API gateway in front of YAPI has such controls configured.
    Affected if No rate limiting, throttling, or resource quota controls are configured for the API endpoints

A user is affected if YAPI version 1.12.0 is installed and running, and no resource consumption controls (rate limiting, throttling, or quotas) are configured to mitigate the uncontrolled resource consumption vulnerability.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
