CVE-2026-91080 Details
Description
webhook through 2.8.3 reads the entire request body into memory before evaluating trigger rules, allowing unauthenticated attackers to exhaust memory by sending oversized bodies. Attackers can send multi-gigabyte request bodies with invalid signatures to trigger out-of-memory conditions and crash the service.
A denial-of-service vulnerability has been identified in Webhook versions through 2.8.3. The issue arises because the application reads the entire request body into memory before evaluating trigger rules, including HMAC signature checks. This flaw allows unauthenticated attackers to send oversized request bodies, exhausting the server's memory and causing the service to crash. The vulnerability affects all hooks, regardless of whether they have trigger rules configured.
