Sorry mate, for wrong answer earlier:

 

No, out-of-the-box ServiceNow does not allow you to upload empty (0-byte) files. If you attempt to attach a completely empty document or text file, the platform will typically reject the upload, block it, or fail to save the file without throwing a clear error.
