GHSA-v25j-wqcw-fvhj: wger has an Uncontrolled Resource Consumption issue

May 13, 2026

Any authenticated user can create a routine spanning an arbitrarily long date range (e.g. 100 years) and then trigger the date_sequence computation via any of the routine detail endpoints. The server iterates once per day in an unbounded while loop with no maximum duration validation, causing a single HTTP request to consume multiple seconds of server CPU and return a response containing tens of thousands of entries. Repeated requests can exhaust all worker threads and deny service to other users.
