Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling via the request body processing. An attacker can cause the server to crash or become unresponsive by sending excessively large payloads to certain API endpoints, leading to resource exhaustion.

Workaround

This vulnerability can be mitigated by manually setting request body size limits, for example, by configuring the ingress controller (such as nginx-ingress) to restrict request sizes.
