The api/report.php endpoint has no rate limiting mechanism. An attacker can submit unlimited reports with automated scripts, potentially exhausting server resources, flooding the recipient's email inbox, and degrading service availability. The only protection is a client-side honeypot field which provides no defense against automated attacks. The affected code is api/report.php:1. This change is the fix I would apply.

Reference: CWE-770
