Summary

apache-commons-fileupload security update

Details

The javax.servlet package lacks support for RFC-1867, HTML file upload. This package provides a simple to use API for working with such data. The scope of this package is to create a package of Java utility classes to read multipart/form-data within a javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest.

Security Fix(es):

Allocation of resources for multipart headers with insufficient limits enabled a DoS vulnerability in Apache Commons FileUpload.

This issue affects Apache Commons FileUpload: from 1.0 before 1.6; from 2.0.0-M1 before 2.0.0-M4.

Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 1.6 or 2.0.0-M4, which fix the issue.(CVE-2025-48976)

Severity

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
