Description
When handling a libprocess message wrapped in an HTTP request, libprocess in Apache Mesos before 1.1.3, 1.2.x before 1.2.2, 1.3.x before 1.3.1, and 1.4.0-dev crashes if the request path is empty, because the parser assumes the request path always starts with '/'. A malicious actor can therefore cause a denial of service of Mesos masters rendering the Mesos-controlled cluster inoperable.
Affected configurations
• apache mesos (<= 1.1.2)
• apache mesos 1.2.0
• apache mesos 1.2.1
• apache mesos 1.3.0
• apache mesos 1.3.1
• apache mesos 1.4.0-dev
