CVE-2026-49140Nanobot < 0.2.1 Denial of Service via Matrix Media Download Handler

Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects HKUDS nanobot. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

Nanobot prior to version 0.2.1 contains a denial of service vulnerability in the Matrix channel media download handler that allows authenticated room members to exhaust process memory and bandwidth by sending media events with missing or invalid size metadata. Attackers can send multiple concurrent Matrix media events with omitted or invalid declared sizes to trigger simultaneous large media downloads that fully materialize response bodies before post-download rejection, consuming process resources until service degradation occurs.
