Doc Text:
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.
