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. (CVE-2023-24998)

Impact

An attacker may be able to use a malicious file upload or series of uploads to trigger a denial-of-service (DoS).
