CVE-2011-5037: Google v8

Medium severity, CVSS 5.0. EPSS: 1.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Google V8 computes hash values for form parameters without restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) by sending many crafted parameters, as demonstrated by attacks against Node.js.
