Summary
Fix high severity security issue in
opensource/whois_server/whois.py.Vulnerability
V-002opensource/whois_server/whois.py:1Description: The WHOIS server does not implement any rate limiting, connection throttling, or per-IP query limits. Every incoming TCP connection and query is processed without restriction. Because each query may trigger DNS lookups or outbound connections to upstream WHOIS servers, the resource cost per request is amplified, making it possible for a single attacker with modest bandwidth to exhaust the server's CPU, memory, file descriptors, or network connections.
