GMS-2023-3933: DoS vulnerabilities persist in ESAPI file uploads despite remediation of CVE-2023-24998

October 27, 2023

ESAPI 2.5.2.0 and later addressed the DoS vulnerability described in CVE-2023-24998, which Apache Commons FileUpload 1.5 attempted to remediate. But while writing up a new security bulletin regarding the impact on the affected ESAPI HTTPUtilities.getFileUploads methods (or more specifically those methods in the DefaultHTTPUtilities implementation class), I realized that a DoS vulnerability still persists in ESAPI and for that matter in Apache Commons FileUpload as well.
