Application crash via oversized calculator input
Published Jan 21, 2026 · Updated Jan 21, 2026
Resource exhaustion in GeoGebra Graphing Calculator 6.0.631.0 allows local users to crash the application via oversized input. The calculator's Entrada input field accepts and processes an 8,000-character string without an effective size or resource limit. Exploitation requires active pasting of the generated payload into the Windows desktop input field, after which the affected process becomes unresponsive.
