Heap Memory exhaustion in Gerrit

Published Feb 17, 2021 · Updated Sep 16, 2024 · Assigned by Google

Description

Any git operation is passed through Jetty and a session is created. No expiry is set for the session and Jetty does not automatically dispose of the session. Over multiple git actions, this can lead to a heap memory exhaustion for Gerrit servers. We recommend upgrading Gerrit to any of the versions listed above.
