GHSA-5jpm-x58v-624v Netty's HttpPostRequestDecoder can OOM

• Maven io.netty:netty-codec-http: < 4.1.108.Final → fixed in 4.1.108.Final

Summary The `HttpPostRequestDecoder` can be tricked to accumulate data. I have spotted currently two attack vectors Details 1. While the decoder can store items on the disk if configured so, there are no limits to the number of fields the form can have, an attacher can send a chunked post consisting of many small fields that will be accumulated in the `bodyListHttpData` list. 2. The decoder cumulates bytes in the `undecodedChunk` buffer until it can decode a field, this field can cumulate data without limits PoC Here is a Netty branch that provides a fix + tests : https://github.com/vietj/netty/tree/post-request-decoder Here is a reproducer with Vert.x (which uses this decoder) https://gist.github.com/vietj/f558b8ea81ec6505f1e9a6ca283c9ae3 Impact Any Netty based HTTP server that uses the `HttpPostRequestDecoder` to decode a form.
