Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

CVE-2025-32437

Severity High
Score 8.7/10

Summary

AutoGPT is a workflow automation platform for creating, deploying, and managing continuous artificial intelligence agents. Prior to 0.6.63, `MediaDurationBlock` will download and store the video in a temporary directory without deleting before all noded are done. `StepThroughItemsBlock` can be used to iterate `MediaDurationBlock` multiple times. `StepThroughItemsBlock` does not limit the number of loops. In addition, `MediaDurationBlock ` does not limit the amount of disk space consumed in the current working directory and does not delete the video after outputing the result. When a malicious user chooses to screen shot many web pages, the disk space will eventually run out, causing a DoS. Version 0.6.63 patches the issue.

CWE-400 - Uncontrolled resource consumption

An uncontrolled resource allocation attack (also known as resource exhaustion attack) triggers unauthorized overconsumption of the limited resources in an application, such as memory, file system storage, database connection pool entries, and CPU. This may lead to denial of service for valid users and degradation of the application's functionality as well as that of the host operating system.
