Well, uploads can be remotely, so this can be seen as a DOS
attack vector that does not necessarily require privileges
for (physical) access like (remote) shell.

And then I recall there being the zip bombs where a very small
file would unzip to a huge one. This is probably nothing that
could be caught by limiting the size of the upload.

Do we know if WF continues to work when e.g. the partition for
log files or other data is full?
