Machine-written summary

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

Pterodactyl panel versions before 1.12.0 are vulnerable to a race condition in resource limit checks. An authenticated user who sends many requests at the same time can create more databases, port allocations, or backups for a server than its configured limit allows, which can exhaust node allocations and backup space. Upgrade to Pterodactyl panel 1.12.0 or later.
