When multer is configured with an asynchronous fileFilter, the limits.fileSize limit can be bypassed. The 'limit' event is registered inside the async fileFilter callback, so if a file exceeds limits.fileSize before that callback runs, the event is missed and the oversized upload is accepted instead of being rejected with a LIMIT_FILE_SIZE error. Applications that rely on limits.fileSize to reject oversized uploads are affected on all upload methods (.single(), .array(), .fields(), …
multer is vulnerable to a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted array index in multipart field names. The append-field dependency parses bracket notation in field names, and a large numeric index such as items[4294967294] forces allocation of a maximum-length sparse array. A following field with a non-numeric key on the same base then converts that array to an object by iterating its full length, which consumes CPU synchronously and …
A vulnerability in multer 2.2.0 allows an attacker to trigger a Denial of Service (DoS) by aborting or truncating multipart uploads. When using diskStorage, the destination write stream is not closed if the upload is aborted before it finishes, so each failed request leaks an open file descriptor and retains its disk blocks until the process exits. Repeated failed uploads can exhaust the available file descriptors. All applications using multer's …
A vulnerability in multer allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to crash the Node.js process with a single multipart/form-data request. Two specially crafted text field names cause an uncaught RangeError: Invalid array length inside multer's field parsing, which is not routed to the application error handler and terminates the process. All applications using multer to parse multipart requests are affected.
A vulnerability in Multer allows an attacker to trigger a Denial of Service (DoS) by aborting or sending malformed multipart uploads, causing orphaned partial files to accumulate on disk when using diskStorage.
Multer is vulnerable to a Denial of Service (DoS) via deeply nested field names in multipart form data. The append-field dependency parses bracket notation in field names (e.g., a[b][c]) with no limit on nesting depth, allowing an attacker to force allocation of deeply nested object structures that consume CPU and memory. A single HTTP request with a crafted multipart body is sufficient to exploit this.
A vulnerability in Multer versions < 2.1.1 allows an attacker to trigger a Denial of Service (DoS) by sending malformed requests, potentially causing stack overflow.
A vulnerability in Multer versions < 2.1.0 allows an attacker to trigger a Denial of Service (DoS) by dropping connection during file upload, potentially causing resource exhaustion.
A vulnerability in Multer versions < 2.1.0 allows an attacker to trigger a Denial of Service (DoS) by sending malformed requests, potentially causing resource exhaustion.
