What it is

⚠️ A carefully crafted request is the ticket to potential data leakage! This vulnerability in version 6.4.0 could lead to a resource-based Denial of Service (DoS) attack. 📉 Think of it like a sneaky delivery driver who claims they have a package but ends up leaking confidential information instead. If they manage to jam the delivery system, it could slow everything down for everyone! 📦🚫 This means attackers could potentially access sensitive data that should be kept under wraps or overload your system, denying service to legitimate users. While it may not be the worst-case scenario, it can lead to some serious headaches and reputational damage.
