CVE-2026-39904 PUBLISHED

Gophish 0.12.1 Denial of Service via Office Document Upload

Assigner: VulnCheck
Reserved: 07.04.2026 Published: 22.06.2026 Updated: 23.06.2026

Gophish through 0.12.1 contains a denial of service vulnerability that allows authenticated users with the User role to exhaust server memory by uploading a crafted Office document as an email template attachment. The ApplyTemplate() function in models/attachment.go processes Office documents as ZIP archives and calls ioutil.ReadAll() on each contained file entry without enforcing size restrictions on uncompressed content, allowing a zip bomb payload to expand to several gigabytes in memory and cause the process to be terminated by the operating system.
