Description
An issue was discovered in 6.0 before 6.0.4, 5.2 before 5.2.13, and 4.2 before 4.2.30.
ASGI requests with a missing or understated Content-Length header could
bypass the DATA_UPLOAD_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE limit when reading
HttpRequest.body, allowing remote attackers to load an unbounded request body into
memory.
Earlier, unsupported Django series (such as 5.0.x, 4.1.x, and 3.2.x) were not evaluated and may also be affected.
Django would like to thank Superior for reporting this issue.
