Executive Summary

This vulnerability in ProcessWire CMS 3.0.246 allows a low-privileged user with the lang-edit permission to upload a specially crafted ZIP file to the Language Support feature. The system automatically extracts the ZIP file without any limits before validating it, which can lead to resource exhaustion and cause a Denial of Service (DoS).

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability can impact you by allowing an attacker with low privileges to cause a Denial of Service on the ProcessWire CMS system. This happens because the crafted ZIP file can exhaust system resources during extraction, potentially making the service unavailable to legitimate users.
