Service hang via oversized multipart boundary
Published Mar 20, 2025 · Updated Oct 15, 2025
Resource exhaustion in GPT Academic 3.83 allows remote attackers to interrupt the service via a crafted multipart file upload. The multipart boundary parser repeatedly processes every excessive trailing character and emits a warning for each byte instead of rejecting the malformed boundary. An unauthenticated network request to the upload interface is sufficient to keep the server busy and make the application inaccessible.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
