Details
It was discovered that Python-Multipart incorrectly handled certain
regular expressions. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause
Python-Multipart to consume excessive resources, leading to a regular
expression denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.
(CVE-2024-24762)
It was discovered that Python-Multipart did not properly sanitize line
breaks during user input. An attacker could use this issue to send
arbitrary input, thus preventing other requests from being processed,
resulting in a denial of service. This issue was only fixed in
Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-53981)
It was discovered that Python-Multipart was vulnerable to path traversal
attacks. An attacker could possibly craft and upload files outside the
target directory, resulting in remote code execution. (CVE-2026-24486)
