CVE-2026-30955 — Gokapi is a self-hosted file sharing server with automatic expiration and encryption support
Medium
CVSS 6.5
Gokapi is a self-hosted file sharing server with automatic expiration and encryption support. Prior to 2.2.4, An API endpoint accepts unbounded request bodies without any size limit. An authenticated user can cause an OOM kill and complete service disruption for all users. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.2.4.

Matched remediation archetype
Resource exhaustion and denial of service
This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.
Check exposure
- Identify attacker-influenced work factors including input size, nesting, compression, fan-out, regex cost, allocation, recursion, retries, and connection lifetime.
- Map per-request and shared CPU, memory, disk, descriptor, thread, queue, and downstream-service limits.
- Determine whether authentication, tenancy, quotas, and rate controls apply before expensive processing begins.
Remediate safely
- Bound input size, nesting, expansion, work, concurrency, queue depth, retries, and execution time before resource-intensive processing.
- Release resources on every success, error, cancellation, and timeout path and use backpressure instead of unbounded buffering.
- Update affected components and add small deterministic tests that assert resource ceilings rather than exhausting a host.
