Unauthenticated service interruption via unbounded Brotli decompression
Published Nov 10, 2025 · Updated Nov 10, 2025
Resource exhaustion in Bugsink before 2.0.5 allows remote attackers with a known DSN to interrupt the service using Brotli input. The brotli_generator function passed compressed chunks to brotli.Decompressor.process without an output limit, allowing expansion before event-size maximums applied. Knowledge of a project DSN is required; the documented consequence is memory exhaustion and service interruption, not data access or modification.

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.
