Server hang via slow incomplete POST bodies
Published Dec 9, 2025 · Updated Aug 24, 2026
Denial of service in Outsystems Platform Server 11.18.1.37828 allows remote attackers to hang the server with slow HTTP POST bodies. The HTTP listener keeps many connections open while their declared Content-Length remains unsatisfied, allowing slow body fragments to exhaust server resources. The attack requires numerous concurrent unauthenticated connections; the researcher reports that fewer than 500 stopped the API, dashboard, and IIS pages from responding, while the supplier states that it could not reproduce the behavior.
