Machine-written summary

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

Opencast's Elasticsearch integration in org.opencastproject:opencast-elasticsearch-impl versions 11.4 up to 13.10, 14.0 up to 14.3, and 15.0 up to 16.7 can enter an endless retry loop when a previously accepted search produces an invalid query, filling logs and possibly exhausting disk space. The source does not describe a specific attacker role; the affected endpoints normally require admin or API series view roles, and the problem can be triggered by ordinary administrative searches. Upgrade to 13.10, 14.3, or 16.7 depending on your release line; no workarounds are identified.
