DescriptionCVE.org

Tornado before 6.5.8 contains a memory amplification vulnerability in parse_multipart_form_data that splits multipart data before validating the max_parts limit. Attackers can send crafted multipart requests with many parts to create large transient lists, exhausting server memory and causing denial of service.

AnalysisAI

Memory amplification denial of service in the Tornado Python web framework before 6.5.8 lets unauthenticated remote attackers exhaust server memory with a single crafted multipart/form-data request containing tens of thousands of parts — roughly 600KB of body is enough to build a 100,000-element transient list. Tornado's parse_multipart_form_data splits the body on the boundary before it enforces the max_parts limit, so the safety check fires only after the expensive allocation has already happened. …
