  - In PHP versions 7.2.x below 7.2.31, 7.3.x below 7.3.18 and 7.4.x below 7.4.6, when HTTP file uploads are
    allowed, supplying overly long filenames or field names could lead PHP engine to try to allocate oversized
    memory storage, hit the memory limit and stop processing the request, without cleaning up temporary files
    created by upload request. This potentially could lead to accumulation of uncleaned temporary files
    exhausting the disk space on the target server. (CVE-2019-11048)
