CVE-2026-108750 OpenDocMan CVE debrief

OpenDocMan 2.4.0 through 2.10.0 contains a decompression bomb vulnerability that allows authenticated users to exhaust PHP memory by uploading crafted office documents. This vulnerability can lead to denial of service due to PHP worker crashes and system unavailability. Defenders should assess exposure and prioritize remediation, particularly in environments with high user upload activity. The vulnerability is caused by the decompression of crafted office documents, which can decompress to hundreds of megabytes, crashing PHP workers and degrading availability.
