CVE-2026-125111

Description
Rack is a modular Ruby web server interface. Prior to 2.2.25, 3.1.23, and 3.2.8, Rack::Multipart::Parser can retain parsed data in its internal StringScanner buffer when reads end inside or immediately after multipart headers. An unauthenticated attacker can align many small parts with rack.multipart.buffer_size boundaries so the buffer grows with the request despite per-field, header, and preamble limits, causing a worker to exhaust memory. The attack requires only a well-formed multipart body and affects applications that parse multipart requests. This issue is fixed in versions 2.2.25, 3.1.23, and 3.2.8.
