Apache Commons FileUpload before 1.5 does not limit the number of request parts to be processed resulting in the possibility of an attacker triggering a DoS with a malicious upload or series of uploads. Note that, like all of the file upload limits, the new configuration option (FileUploadBase#setFileCountMax) is not enabled by default and must be explicitly configured.
Update commons-fileupload:commons-fileupload to 1.5; org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core to 10.1.5; org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core to 11.0.0-M5; org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core to 8.5.88; org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core to 9.0.71; org.apache.tomcat:tomcat-catalina to 10.1.5; org.apache.tomcat:tomcat-catalina to 11.0.0-M5; org.apache.tomcat:tomcat-catalina to 8.5.88; org.apache.tomcat:tomcat-catalina to 9.0.71; org.apache.tomcat:tomcat-coyote to 10.1.5; org.apache.tomcat:tomcat-coyote to 11.0.0-M5; org.apache.tomcat:tomcat-coyote to 8.5.88; org.apache.tomcat:tomcat-coyote to 9.0.71 if you use the affected versions. Test the change in a non-production environment first.

AI coding agents often install or upgrade packages automatically in maven. A high vulnerability in a dependency can be pulled into a project through a normal install or update without a human reviewing the change, expanding the blast radius from a single package to every agent workspace that depends on it.
