Impact
The compose-go library component in versions v2.10-v2.4.0 allows an authorized user who sends malicious YAML payloads to cause the compose-go to consume excessive amount of Memory and CPU cycles while parsing YAML, such as used by Docker Compose from versions v2.27.0 to v2.29.7 included
Patches
compose-go v2.24.1 fixed the issue
Workarounds
There isn't any known workaround.
