Description
A denial-of-service (DoS) vulnerability has been identified in Apache Tomcat, concerning its handling of upload limits. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw by sending a specially crafted request containing an excessively large number of multipart sections. This malicious request can trigger excessive memory consumption on the Tomcat server, ultimately leading to resource exhaustion and a denial-of-service condition.
