CVE-2026-19484: @fastify/busboy vulnerable to Denial of Service via oversized multipart boundary

October 2, 2026

Versions of @fastify/busboy from 3.1.0 and prior to 3.2.1 are vulnerable to a Denial of Service. The vendored streaming multipart search stores its default skip distance in a Uint8Array(256). A multipart boundary of exactly 252 bytes makes the search needle 256 bytes, and the table entry wraps to zero, so a crafted request keeps the search in a CPU-bound loop and stalls the Node.js event loop. An unauthenticated client can trigger this with a single small request. Applications that use @fastify/busboy to parse multipart/form-data, directly or through @fastify/multipart, are affected.
