Yes, looping of any trans can be the cause of CICS down. It might be happen if your program going in loop due to some error in logical boundation in PERFORM ..UNTIL , etc.

When there is looping all the resources is being allocated to handle the looping execution and at last the system goes down.

And if you have a table (OCCURS) in working storage, a loop can easily do a few STORAGE VIOLATIONs.
When a vital part of the memory is reached, CICS will abort.
