    Package        : python-tornado
    Version        : 6.1.0-1+deb11u2
    CVE ID         : CVE-2025-47287
    Debian Bug     : 1105886

    Tornado is a scalable, non-blocking Python web framework and
    asynchronous networking library.

    CVE-2025-47287

       When Tornado's 'multipart/form-data' parser encounters certain
       errors, it logs a warning but continues trying to parse the
       remainder of the data. This allows remote attackers to generate an
       extremely high volume of logs, constituting a DoS attack. This DoS
       is compounded by the fact that the logging subsystem is synchronous.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version
    6.1.0-1+deb11u2.

    We recommend that you upgrade your python-tornado packages.

    For the detailed security status of python-tornado please refer to
    its security tracker page at:
