CVE-2024-8925
Description
A flaw was found in PHP's parsing of multipart form data contents, which affects both file and input form data. This may lead to legitimate data not being processed, violating data integrity. For example, if a multipart form data payload contains a valid prefix 'X' of the defined boundary B such that 5Kib < |X| < |B| < 8Kib, the logic responsible for parsing and storing the multipart payload fails to correctly extract the contents between two boundaries.
Mitigation
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options don't meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
