Service interruption via quadratic text-chunk amplification
Published Jun 26, 2026 · Updated Jun 26, 2026
Denial of service in AutoGPT before 0.6.32 allows remote authenticated users to exhaust server memory through crafted summarizer input. AITextSummarizerBlock's _split_text function subtracts user-controlled overlap from max_tokens, then repeatedly stores overlapping chunks without bounding total allocation. An authenticated workflow user can set overlap one below max_tokens, causing quadratic amplification that exhausts memory and interrupts the service.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
