NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python313-python-multipart package and not the python313-python-multipart package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:16.0.0 relevant fixed versions and status.

Python-Multipart is a streaming multipart parser for Python. Prior to version 0.0.22, a Path Traversal vulnerability exists when using non-default configuration options UPLOAD_DIR and UPLOAD_KEEP_FILENAME=True. An attacker can write uploaded files to arbitrary locations on the filesystem by crafting a malicious filename. Users should upgrade to version 0.0.22 to receive a patch or, as a workaround, avoid using UPLOAD_KEEP_FILENAME=True in project configurations.
