HIGH

Synapse < 1.120.1 - Denial of Service via Multipart/Form-Data Request

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

Synapse is an open-source Matrix homeserver. In Synapse before 1.120.1, multipart/form-data requests can in certain configurations transiently increase memory consumption beyond expected levels while processing the request, which can be used to amplify denial of service attacks. Synapse 1.120.1 resolves the issue by denying requests with unsupported multipart/form-data content type.
