Description SMASH SMASH 2023-10-17 06:47:52 UTC
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.

I am not the maintainer of the nextcloud-calender-app package. I do not believe in fragmentation. And the app can be updated within nextcloud. You will even be notified about it by mail. So please address to the right maintainer.
