Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Liferay Portal versions 7.2.0 through 7.3.6 are affected, as are older unsupported versions and Liferay DXP releases before 7.3 service pack 3 and 7.2 fix pack 13. The Document and Media widget does not limit resource use when generating preview images. A remote attacker with a user account can upload crafted PNG images to exhaust memory and cause a denial of service. Upgrade the release.portal.bom package to version 7.3.7 or later.
