A zero\u2011step value (e.g., {1..2..0}) causes its sequence generator to loop indefinitely, making the calling process hang for seconds and allocating large amounts of memory. The result is a denial of service that would impact the application or container in which the library runs.

No evidence indicates code execution is possible.", "risk_and_exploitability": "The CVSS score for this issue is 6.5, reflecting moderate severity.

Based on the description, it is inferred that an attacker could trigger the flaw by supplying a brace pattern with a zero step value to expand() from untrusted input, causing the process to hang and use excessive memory. The likely attack vector would require an application that calls expand() with user\u2011controlled data, potentially leading to a loss of availability for the affected system."}}}}, "created": "2026-03-27T20:28:44.971612+00:00", "updated": "2026-03-31T20:01:16.452348+00:00", "vendors": ["juliangruber", "juliangruber$PRODUCT$brace-expansion"]}
