high

Your website uses a feature in Next.js that automatically resizes and optimises images. A flaw in versions before 15.5.10 means an attacker could point this feature at an extremely large image and force your server to run out of memory — crashing your site. The attacker needs to be able to host or control a large image on a domain your site is already configured to trust.

A flaw in a specific Next.js feature called Partial Prerendering (PPR) allows anyone on the internet to crash your web server by sending a specially crafted request — no login required. This only affects self-hosted Next.js applications running in a specific 'minimal mode' configuration with PPR turned on. If your app is hosted on Vercel's platform, you are not affected.
