Description

Allocation of resources for multipart headers with insufficient limits enabled a DoS vulnerability in Apache Commons FileUpload.
This issue affects Apache Commons FileUpload: from 1.0 before 1.6; from 2.0.0-M1 before 2.0.0-M4.
Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 1.6 or 2.0.0-M4, which fix the issue.. A denial-of-service (DoS) vulnerability has been discovered in the Apache Commons FileUpload library. The flaw stems from insufficient limits placed on multipart headers during file uploads. A remote attacker could exploit this by sending a specially crafted request with an excessively large number of multipart headers. This malicious input can lead to uncontrolled memory consumption within applications utilizing the library, exhausting system resources and causing a denial of service.
