Semantic MediaWiki 3.0.0 before 7.4.1 contains a denial of service vulnerability in the ElasticStore and SPARQLStore ConceptDescriptionInterpreter classes, which re-expand concepts without memoization or an expansion budget. Users with page-edit rights can build acyclic chains of Concept: pages that fan out, so queries via concept page views, Special:Ask, or api.php action=ask exhaust CPU and memory.
