Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Infinite loop due to improper handling of the SQLite maximum parameter limit in the activity_cron component. An attacker can cause the system to repeatedly re-upload and reprocess the same activity log data by triggering a condition where deletion of processed entries fails, eventually leading to resource exhaustion and potential disk space depletion on the database server.
