CVE-2025-52520: Apache Tomcat Catalina is vulnerable to DoS attack through bypassing of size limits

July 10, 2025 (updated August 8, 2025)

For some unlikely configurations of multipart upload, an Integer Overflow vulnerability in Apache Tomcat could lead to a DoS via bypassing of size limits.

This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.8, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.42, from 9.0.0.M1 through 9.0.106. The following versions were EOL at the time the CVE was created but are known to be affected: 8.5.0 through 8.5.100. Other, older, EOL versions may also be affected.

Users are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.9, 10.1.43 or 9.0.107, which fix the issue.
