Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
Lookyloo did not enforce limits on the decompressed size of uploaded capture archives and compressed HAR files.
An attacker could submit a specially crafted ZIP, gzip, or zlib-compressed capture containing data that expands to a very large size during processing. Because the application decompressed this content directly in memory without first limiting the output size, processing the malicious capture could exhaust available memory, terminate a web or worker process, or make the Lookyloo instance unavailable.
The vulnerability affects both full Lookyloo capture archive imports and API submissions containing gzip-compressed HAR data. Repeated exploitation could cause a persistent denial-of-service condition until the affected processes or instance are restarted.
The patch introduces:
- A 1 GB cumulative uncompressed-size limit for imported capture archives.
- Size-limited gzip and zlib decompression for compressed HAR files.
- Explicit detection and handling of suspected zip bombs.
- An HTTP 400 response when an oversized compressed HAR file is submitted through the API.
AnalysisAI
We need to produce a JSON object with the specified fields. The input provides CVE-2026-66913 details, multi-source intelligence including patch availability, CPE, SSVC, EPSS not explicitly given (but EPSS is mentioned in the prompt; we don't have an EPSS score in the data). The prompt says "Use ALL the data provided — including references, EPSS, KEV status, patch availability, CPE strings, and tags". There's no EPSS score in the provided data. No KEV status. The SSVC data: Exploitation: none, Automatable: no, Technical Impact: partial. We have a patch available, commit link, the CWE-400 (Uncontrolled Resource Consumption). CVSS 4.0 vector provided.
Key fields:
- product_name: "Lookyloo" (2 words? "Lookyloo" is 1 word but I'll just say "Lookyloo"). It's an open source web-based tool for HTTP traffic analysis. So "Lookyloo".
- summary: Must be original synthesis. Not copy description. The vulnerability is a denial-of-service via unbounded decompression of uploaded capture archives and compressed HAR files in Lookyloo. Affects versions up to 1.40.0. Attackers can submit a specially crafted ZIP, gzip, or zlib-compressed capture data that expands to a very large size in memory, causing memory exhaustion, process termination, and potential instance unavailability. Patch introduced 1 GB cumulative size limit and safe decompression. No active exploitation, no POC mentioned. EPSS not provided. So summary: "Memory exhaustion denial of service in Lookyloo versions ≤1.40.0 via crafted compressed uploads allows unauthenticated attackers to exhaust memory and crash the service." Check CVSS: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A... UI:A means user interaction required? Actually UI:A means Active? CVSS 4.0: UI (User Interaction) can be None (N), Required (R), or Active (A). UI:A means "Active interaction with the vulnerable component is required to exploit the vulnerability." That's unusual for a server-side attack. Typically for DoS, if an attacker can just send a compressed file,
