Machine-written summary

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

Scriban versions before 7.0.0 (both the scriban and Scriban.Signed NuGet packages) allow a template to bypass the LoopLimit setting through built-in operations, such as a range passed to array.size or a large string repetition. An attacker who can submit templates to an application that renders them can force heavy CPU or memory use from a single expression, causing denial of service. Upgrade to version 7.0.0 or later, which is the fixed version listed.
