Descriptions

Nextcloud calendar is a calendar app for the Nextcloud server platform. Due to missing precondition checks the server was trying to validate strings of any length as email addresses even when megabytes of data were provided, eventually making the server busy and unresponsive. It is recommended that the Nextcloud Calendar app is upgraded to 4.4.4. The only workaround for users unable to upgrade is to disable the calendar app.

Nextcloud calendar es una aplicación de calendario para la plataforma del servidor Nextcloud. Debido a la falta de comprobaciones de condiciones previas, el servidor intentaba validar cadenas de cualquier longitud como direcciones de correo electrónico incluso cuando se proporcionaban megabytes de datos, lo que eventualmente hacía que el servidor estuviera ocupado y no respondiera. Se recomienda actualizar la aplicación Calendario Nextcloud a 4.4.4. El único workaround para los usuarios que no pueden actualizar es desactivar la aplicación de calendario.
