What is CVE-2026-19474?

CVE-2026-19474 is a high-severity denial of service vulnerability in @fastify/multipart, published on 15 Aug 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

Official description

@fastify/multipart is a multipart form-data parser for Fastify. In versions from 3.0.0 up to but not including 10.1.1, request.saveRequestFiles() can leave completed temporary files on disk when a client disconnects while the parser is advancing between multipart parts. The iterator rejection that occurs between parts falls outside the per-file cleanup path, so an earlier completed file is never removed. An unauthenticated client can repeat this to cause persistent, linear disk consumption, leading to denial of service. This is an incomplete-fix variant of CVE-2025-24033. The issue is fixed in @fastify/multipart 10.1.1. Users should upgrade to 10.1.1.

Weakness: CWE-770, CWE-459
