| CVE-2025-15474 | Med | 0.34 | — | 0.00 | Jan 7, 2026 | AuntyFey Smart Combination Lock firmware versions as of 2025-12-24 contain a vulnerability that allows an unauthenticated attacker within Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) range to cause a denial of service by repeatedly initiating BLE connections. Sustained connection attempts interrupt keypad authentication input and repeatedly force the device into lockout states, preventing legitimate users from unlocking the device. | |
| CVE-2025-14466 | Med | 0.34 | 5.3 | 0.00 | Dec 16, 2025 | A vulnerability in the web interface of the Güralp Fortimus Series, Minimus Series and Certimus Series allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access to send specially-crafted HTTP requests that can cause the web service process to deliberately restart. Although this mechanism limits the impact of the attack, it results in a brief denial-of-service condition during the restart. | |

| CVE-2024-45526 | Med | 0.34 | 5.3 | 0.00 | Oct 22, 2024 | An issue was discovered in OPC Foundation OPCFoundation/UA-.NETStandard through 1.5.374.78. A remote attacker can send requests with invalid credentials and cause the server performance to degrade gradually. | |
| CVE-2024-6098 | Med | 0.34 | 5.3 | 0.00 | Aug 16, 2024 | When performing an online tag generation to devices which communicate using the ControlLogix protocol, a machine-in-the-middle, or a device that is not configured correctly, could deliver a response leading to unrestricted or unregulated resource allocation. This could cause a denial-of-service condition and crash the Kepware application. By default, these functions are turned off, yet they remain accessible for users who recognize and require their advantages. | |

| CVE-2025-32425 | Med | 0.33 | — | 0.00 | May 13, 2026 | AutoGPT is a platform that allows users to create, deploy, and manage continuous artificial intelligence agents that automate complex workflows. In AutoGPT, the execution process is recorded to the console (stdout/stderr), and deployed in container mode, which is automatically captured by Docker and stored as "container logs". However, prior to 0.6.32, there is no limit on the log size when the container is deployed. When the number of user accesses is too large, the log on the server disk will be too large, causing disk resource exhaustion and eventually causing DoS. autogpt-platform-beta-v0.6.32 fixes the issue. | |
| CVE-2026-44931 | Med | 0.33 | — | 0.00 | May 13, 2026 | The newly introduced RecordUsage D-Bus method https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pwithnall/malcontent/-/blob/0.14.0/libmalcontent-timer/child-timer-service.c in malcontent-timerd allows arbitrary users in the system to slowly fill up disk space in /var/lib/malcontent-timerd | |
| CVE-2026-41648 | Med | 0.33 | 5.0 | 0.00 | May 7, 2026 | Incus is a system container and virtual machine manager. Prior to version 7.0.0, user provided image and backup tarballs would be unpacked and YAML files parsed without any size restrictions. This was making it easy for an authenticated user to provide a crafted image or backup tarball that when parsed by Incus would lead to a very large YAML document being loaded into memory, potentially causing the entire server to run out of memory. This issue has been patched in version 7.0.0. | |
| CVE-2026-40608 | Med | 0.33 | 6.2 | 0.00 | Apr 21, 2026 | Next AI Draw.io is a next.js web application that integrates AI capabilities with draw.io diagrams. Prior to 0.4.15, the embedded HTTP sidecar contains three POST handlers (/api/state, /api/restore, and /api/history-svg) that process incoming requests by accumulating the entire request body into a JavaScript string without any size limitations. Node.js buffers the entire payload in the V8 heap. Sending a sufficiently large body (e.g., 500 MiB or more) will exhaust the process heap memory, leading to an Out-of-Memory (OOM) error that crashes the MCP server. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.4.15. | |
| CVE-2026-35480 | Med | 0.33 | 6.2 | 0.00 | Apr 7, 2026 | go-ipld-prime is an implementation of the InterPlanetary Linked Data (IPLD) spec interfaces, a batteries-included codec implementations of IPLD for CBOR and JSON, and tooling for basic operations on IPLD objects. Prior to 0.22.0, the DAG-CBOR decoder uses collection sizes declared in CBOR headers as Go preallocation hints for maps and lists. The decoder does not cap these size hints or account for their cost in its allocation budget, allowing small payloads to cause excessive memory allocation. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.22.0. | |
| CVE-2026-34165 | Med | 0.33 | 5.0 | 0.00 | Mar 31, 2026 | go-git is an extensible git implementation library written in pure Go. From version 5.0.0 to before version 5.17.1, a vulnerability has been identified in which a maliciously crafted .idx file can cause asymmetric memory consumption, potentially exhausting available memory and resulting in a denial-of-service (DoS) condition. Exploitation requires write access to the local repository's .git directory, it order to create or alter existing .idx files. This issue has been patched in version 5.17.1. | |
| CVE-2025-0122 | Med | 0.33 | — | 0.00 | Apr 11, 2025 | A denial-of-service (DoS) vulnerability in Palo Alto Networks Prisma® SD-WAN ION devices enables an unauthenticated attacker in a network adjacent to a Prisma SD-WAN ION device to disrupt the packet processing capabilities of the device by sending a burst of crafted packets to that device. | |
| CVE-2024-23184 | Med | 0.33 | 5.0 | 0.00 | Sep 10, 2024 | Having a large number of address headers (From, To, Cc, Bcc, etc.) becomes excessively CPU intensive. With 100k header lines CPU usage is already 12 seconds, and in a production environment we observed 500k header lines taking 18 minutes to parse. Since this can be triggered by external actors sending emails to a victim, this is a security issue. An external attacker can send specially crafted messages that consume target system resources and cause outage. One can implement restrictions on address headers on MTA component preceding Dovecot. No publicly available exploits are known. | |
| CVE-2026-42256 | Med | 0.32 | — | 0.00 | May 9, 2026 | Net::IMAP implements Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) client functionality in Ruby. From versions 0.4.0 to before 0.4.24, 0.5.0 to before 0.5.14, and 0.6.0 to before 0.6.4, when authenticating a connection with SCRAM-SHA1 or SCRAM-SHA256, a hostile server can perform a computational denial-of-service attack on the client process by sending a big iteration count value. This issue has been patched in versions 0.4.24, 0.5.14, and 0.6.4. | |
| CVE-2026-6948 | Med | 0.32 | 4.9 | 0.00 | May 4, 2026 | Velociraptor versions prior to 0.76.4 contain a resource exhaustion vulnerability in the server's agent control channel. This allows a compromised or rogue Velociraptor client to crash the server via out-of-memory (OOM) by sending crafted messages through the normal client communication channel. |
