Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
multer versions 2.2.0 through 2.3.0
Description
multer is a Node.js middleware for handling multipart/form-data uploads. When a request using disk storage is aborted during the upload process, file writes that finish after the abort cleanup has executed are not deleted. This results in orphaned files remaining on the disk. A remote unauthenticated attacker can exploit this by repeatedly starting and aborting uploads to fill the disk space, leading to a denial of service.
Recommendations
Upgrade multer to version 2.4.0 or later.
