Administrator-triggered service interruption via unbounded resource allocation
Published Feb 11, 2026 · Updated Feb 11, 2026
Resource exhaustion in QNAP Qsync Central 5.0.x before 5.0.0.4 allows remote authenticated users to interrupt access to shared resources. QNAP has not disclosed the affected component, resource type, or operation that allocates resources without limits or throttling. Exploitation requires an administrator account and can deny other systems, applications, or processes access to the exhausted resource.
