Does this affect you?

It affects yeswiki. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

YesWiki before 4.6.7 contains an algorithmic-complexity denial of service in the wakka.php formatter due to an O(n^2) markdown-link regex. Unauthenticated attackers can submit a small crafted body of bracket characters to the page-edit preview endpoint to pin PHP-FPM workers and saturate the pool.
