AI-suggested
Upgrade to Tornado version 6.5 or later, where this issue is fixed. Until the upgrade is possible, mitigate risk by blocking HTTP requests with the Content-Type header set to multipart/form-data at a proxy or firewall to prevent triggering the vulnerability.
Description
A denial-of-service vulnerability exists in Tornado's multipart/form-data parser prior to version 6.5. When encountering malformed multipart form data, the parser logs warnings synchronously while continuing to parse, allowing remote attackers to generate excessive logging and cause service disruption. The vulnerability is fixed in Tornado 6.5.
