NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python-clufter package and not the python-clufter package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

Rack is a modular Ruby web server interface. In versions prior to 2.2.19, 3.1.17, and 3.2.2, ``Rack::Multipart::Parserstores non-file form fields (parts without afilename) entirely in memory as Ruby Stringobjects. A single large text field in a multipart/form-data request (hundreds of megabytes or more) can consume equivalent process memory, potentially leading to out-of-memory (OOM) conditions and denial of service (DoS). Attackers can send large non-file fields to trigger excessive memory usage. Impact scales with request size and concurrency, potentially leading to worker crashes or severe garbage-collection overhead. All Rack applications processing multipart form submissions are affected. Versions 2.2.19, 3.1.17, and 3.2.2 enforce a reasonable size cap for non-file fields (e.g., 2 MiB). Workarounds include restricting maximum request body size at the web-server or proxy layer (e.g., Nginxclient_max_body_size`) and validating and rejecting unusually large form fields at the application level.
