Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
filebrowser through 2.63.23 fails to validate named pipes in directory archive and public download handlers, allowing attackers to trigger blocking open syscalls. Authenticated users or anonymous visitors with public share links can repeatedly request archives containing named pipes to pin server goroutines and exhaust connection resources.
AnalysisAI
Resource exhaustion in filebrowser through 2.63.23 allows denial-of-service by exploiting unvalidated named pipes in the archive and public download handlers. Both authenticated users and anonymous visitors holding public share links can trigger blocking open() syscalls by repeatedly requesting archives that include named pipe (FIFO) filesystem entries, pinning server goroutines until connection resources are exhausted. …
