Affected packages

• Go github.com/corazawaf/coraza/v3: >= 3.4.0, < 3.8.0 → fixed in 3.8.0

Description

Root Cause File: `internal/bodyprocessors/multipart.go` (since commit `3347961b`, PR #1453 *"feat: ignore unexpected EOF in MIME multipart request body processor"*, merged 2026-03-06, first shipped in `v3.4.0`). The multipart body processor treats `io.ErrUnexpectedEOF` as a benign condition. Three sites are affected; all mishandle the error the same way. File branch, filesystem-backed (lines 71–77) ```go sz, err := io.Copy(temp, p) if err != nil { if !errors.Is(err, io.ErrUnexpectedEOF) { v.MultipartStrictError().(*collections.Single).Set("1") return err } seenUnexpectedEOF = true // = 3.4.0, <= 3.7.0`. Releases prior to `v3.4.0` returned `err` on `io.ErrUnexpectedEOF` and so `REQBODY_ERROR` would propagate via rule 200002 even if `MULTIPART_STRICT_ERROR` was not set — a different (arguably stricter) behavior that did not exhibit this bypass. References • `internal/bodyprocessors/multipart.go` lines 70–113 • `coraza.conf-recommended` rule `id:200003` (`MULTIPART_STRICT_ERROR`) • PR #1453 — introduction of `ErrUnexpectedEOF` swallowing • `coraza.conf-recommended` rule `id:200002` (`REQBODY_ERROR`) — also not raised because `ProcessRequest` returns `nil`
