Service interruption via undeleted temporary upload files
Published Jan 23, 2025 · Updated Feb 12, 2025
Resource exhaustion in Fastify @fastify/multipart before 8.3.1 and 9.0.0 through 9.0.2 allows remote attackers to consume disk space. The saveRequestFiles function writes multipart uploads to temporary files but omits cleanup when a client cancels an incomplete request, leaving its promise pending and the partial file on disk. An application must expose a multipart route that invokes saveRequestFiles; repeated unauthenticated aborted uploads can fill temporary storage and interrupt the hosting service.
