How to fix?

Upgrade AlmaLinux:9 toolbox to version 0:0.0.99.5-5.el9 or higher.
This issue was patched in ALSA-2024:9135.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream toolbox package and not the toolbox package as distributed by AlmaLinux. See How to fix? for AlmaLinux:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

When parsing a multipart form (either explicitly with Request.ParseMultipartForm or implicitly with Request.FormValue, Request.PostFormValue, or Request.FormFile), limits on the total size of the parsed form were not applied to the memory consumed while reading a single form line. This permits a maliciously crafted input containing very long lines to cause allocation of arbitrarily large amounts of memory, potentially leading to memory exhaustion. With fix, the ParseMultipartForm function now correctly limits the maximum size of form lines.
