Attackers who control a podcast feed or media URL can stream an unbounded response to local storage via the temp-file download path, exhausting disk or system resources on the host running the CLI.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-06-11T19:11:49.211+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-08T15:23:10.566+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"summarize","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"defaultStatus\": \"affected\",\n                    \"packageURL\": \"pkg:npm/%40steipete/summarize-core\",\n                    \"vendor\": \"steipete\",\n                    \"product\": \"summarize\",\n                    \"repo\": \"https://github.com/steipete/summarize\",\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"version\": \"0\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"0.17.0\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 4.0","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","score":5.3,"severity":"MEDIUM"},{"system":"CVSS 3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","score":4.3,"severity":"MEDIUM"}],"references":["https://github.com/steipete/summarize/releases/tag/v0.17.0","https://github.com/steipete/summarize/pull/237","https://github.com/steipete/summarize/commit/14de194c24c5e0fba4bdb4a6f7766eb6ea3ed750","https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/summarize-disk-exhaustion-via-uncapped-media-download"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-53781","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-53781","identifiers":["CVE-2026-53781"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[]}
