Description Volkan 2017-06-06 14:36:57 UTC
Vulnerable versions {3.4.0, 3.5.1, 3.5.2} are not in tree.
Upstream states vulnerability is fixed in versions 3.4.10(in tree), 3.5.3, 3.6.0

Incorrect input validation with wchp/wchc four letter words.

Two four letter word commands “wchp/wchc” are CPU intensive and could cause spike of CPU utilization on ZooKeeper server if abused, which leads to the server unable to serve legitimate client requests.
