Description Preview

InvenTree is an Open Source Inventory Management System. Prior to version 0.17.13, the skip field in the built-in `label-sheet` plugin lacks an upper bound, which means that a large value can be submitted. This results in the server allocating an enormous Python list, leading to memory exhaustion. Consequently, any authenticated user with label-printing privileges can trigger a denial-of-service condition. The issue has been addressed in versions 0.17.13 and higher. There are no available workarounds other than upgrading to the patched version.
