It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2023-2023-125 advisory.

  • Werkzeug is a comprehensive WSGI web application library. Prior to version 2.2.3, Werkzeug’s multipart form data parser will parse an unlimited number of parts, including file parts. Parts can be a small amount of bytes, but each requires CPU time to parse and may use more memory as Python data. If a request can be made to an endpoint that accesses request.data, request.form, request.files, or request.get_data(parse_form_data=False), it can cause unexpectedly high resource usage. This allows an attacker to cause a denial of service by sending crafted multipart data to an endpoint that will parse it.
    The amount of CPU time required can block worker processes from handling legitimate requests. The amount of RAM required can trigger an out of memory kill of the process. Unlimited file parts can use up memory and file handles. If many concurrent requests are sent continuously, this can exhaust or kill all available workers. Version 2.2.3 contains a patch for this issue. (CVE-2023-25577)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.

  - Werkzeug is a comprehensive WSGI web application library. Prior to version 2.2.3, Werkzeug's multipart
    form data parser will parse an unlimited number of parts, including file parts. Parts can be a small
    amount of bytes, but each requires CPU time to parse and may use more memory as Python data. If a request
    can be made to an endpoint that accesses `request.data`, `request.form`, `request.files`, or
    `request.get_data(parse_form_data=False)`, it can cause unexpectedly high resource usage. This allows an
    attacker to cause a denial of service by sending crafted multipart data to an endpoint that will parse it.
    The amount of CPU time required can block worker processes from handling legitimate requests. The amount
    of RAM required can trigger an out of memory kill of the process. Unlimited file parts can use up memory
