Description
Spring for GraphQL's Spring Data pagination support resolves arguments of a scrollable query and forwards the client-supplied values to the underlying repository. An attacker can forge a malicious query for a Connection field that can exhaust application memory or place significant, prolonged load on the underlying datastore, resulting in a Denial of Service.
