{"id":"CVE-2026-48484","url":"https://www.cyber-defence.io/tools/cve/CVE-2026-48484","generatedAt":"2026-10-28T01:39:26.905Z","title":"pyLoad is a free and open-source download manager written in Python.","description":"pyLoad is a free and open-source download manager written in Python. Prior to 0.5.0b3.dev101, the API `rpc` function in `api_blueprint.py` handles `multipart/form-data` uploads by reading the whole content of the uploaded file into memory with `file.read()`. This occurs before the data is sent to the underlying function. Since there is no size limit set at this point, a large file upload can exhaust the server's available memory which led to process termination. Version 0.5.0b3.dev101 contains a patch.","published":"2026-10-09T17:16:47.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-14T03:17:29.000Z","status":"Deferred","sourceIdentifier":"security-advisories@github.com","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":6.5,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-20","CWE-400"],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.00371,"percentile":0.30823,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[{"date":"2026-10-10","score":0.00312,"percentile":0.22201}]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"low","text":"Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.37%).
