zip bombs are files that when unzipped expand to enormous sizes. I'm not sure if OP put one to be downloaded for the offender to kill their disk space, or if you could stream one hoping the client browser/scraper would attempt to decompress and crash for memory or disk outages?

That's my read on it anyway.
