DescriptionGitHub Advisory

SvelteKit is a framework for rapidly developing robust, performant web applications using Svelte. From 2.49.0 to 2.49.4, the experimental form remote function uses a binary data format containing a representation of submitted form data. A specially-crafted payload can cause the server to allocate a large amount of memory, causing DoS via memory exhaustion. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.49.5.

AnalysisAI

SvelteKit versions 2.49.0 through 2.49.4 are vulnerable to denial-of-service attacks through the experimental form remote function, which fails to properly validate binary-encoded form payloads and can be exploited to exhaust server memory. An unauthenticated remote attacker can craft a malicious payload to trigger excessive memory allocation, rendering affected applications unavailable. The vulnerability is resolved in version 2.49.5.
