Uncontrolled Resource Consumption (CWE-400) in Elasticsearch can lead to denial of service via Excessive Allocation (CAPEC-130). A low-privileged authenticated user with permission to execute EQL sequence queries against an index they control can send a specially crafted query that triggers excessive memory consumption, causing the Elasticsearch node to crash.

CVE-2026-539376.2 MED—
———MCP Kotlin SDK is the Kotlin Multiplatform software development kit for the Model Context Protocol. In versions 0.7.0 through 0.12.0, `ReadBuffer.append` in `kotlin-sdk-core/src/commonMain/kotlin/io/modelcontextprotocol/kotlin/sdk/shared/ReadBuffer.kt` writes every chunk of bytes received from the stdio transport into a `kotlinx.io.Buffer` with no size cap. Frames are extracted from that buffer only when a `\n` (0x0a) byte is observed. A peer that streams bytes without ever sending a newline causes the internal buffer to grow indefinitely until the JVM (or the surrounding host process) is OOM-killed. The leak is amplified by `StdioServerTransport` and `StdioClientTransport`, which both queue raw chunks through a `kotlinx.coroutines.channels.Channel<ByteArray>(Channel.UNLIMITED)` and then call `readBuffer.append(chunk)` without backpressure or size guard. This is a remote-pre-auth denial of service whenever an SDK stdio server's stdin is fed by an untrusted or attacker-controlled producer (for example: a host program that exec's the MCP server as a subprocess and pipes through bytes received from a network peer, or a sidecar wrapper that proxies bytes from an HTTP endpoint to the stdio transport). Version 0.13.0 fixes the issue.3hCVE-2026-820015.5 MED—
———Acrobat Reader is affected by an Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability that could lead to application denial-of-service. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to exhaust system resources, resulting in an application denial-of-service condition.

———In Microsoft.OpenApi.YamlReader from 2.0.0-preview.11 until 2.12.0 and from 3.0.0 until 3.10.0, and in Microsoft.OpenApi.Readers prior to 1.6.30, a small YAML OpenAPI document containing nested anchors and aliases can cause uncontrolled resource consumption when parsed through the public YAML reader APIs. YAML is parsed through SharpYaml, which represents aliases as shared nodes in a directed acyclic graph, so the parsed YAML graph stays small, but converting that graph to System.Text.Json.Nodes.JsonNode requires every alias to be materialized as an independent node because a JsonNode cannot be attached to multiple parents. Without a bound on that conversion work, a document with N nested anchors each referenced k times can require k^N materialized JSON nodes, leading to excessive memory allocation and process termination through out-of-memory conditions, a billion laughs style denial of service. The patched versions bound the YAML-to-JSON conversion by node count and nesting depth and report an OpenApiDiagnostic error instead of expanding without limit. This vulnerability is fixed in Microsoft.OpenApi.YamlReader 2.12.0 and 3.10.0, and Microsoft.OpenApi.Readers 1.6.30.9hCVE-2026-867346.5 MED—
———Snipe-IT before 8.7.1 fails to validate the length of the note field in the POST /account/accept/{acceptance} endpoint, allowing authenticated users to submit unbounded input that reaches synchronous CommonMark rendering. Attackers can submit large note values to exhaust PHP worker CPU and cause denial of service through resource exhaustion in the markdown parsing pipeline.8h
