Summary

CVE-2026-19474 is a high-severity Incomplete Cleanup (CWE-459) vulnerability. Its CVSS base score is 7.5 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Network Denial of Service (T1498); ranked at the 20th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-10 (Concurrent Session Control) and SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

@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…

more

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.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Directly enforces a hard limit on concurrent sessions, structurally preventing unbounded resource allocation.

Developer testing and evaluation can discover incomplete cleanup through dynamic analysis or resource-leak testing.

Requires explicit allocation of resources by priority or quota, directly stopping unlimited allocation.

Non-persistence mechanisms explicitly initiate resources in a known state and terminate them, directly enforcing cleanup.

Session termination forces explicit release of session-related temporary resources.

Imposes a limit on consecutive invalid attempts, preventing one specific class of unbounded resource consumption.

Secure-development practices and coding standards normally require proper resource release and cleanup.

degrades

Explicitly requires secure deletion of temporary or residual data, directly addressing incomplete cleanup.

finds

Baseline comparison of CPU, memory and bandwidth usage helps surface uncontrolled resource allocations before they cause service degradation.

prevents

Capacity projections and elasticity measures ensure that allocation requests are bounded and can be throttled, reducing the window in which an attacker can force unbounded resource reservations.

mitigates

Defining retention periods and deletion schedules for backup copies prevents indefinite accumulation of data on storage media without corresponding resource-management controls.

mitigates

Architectural redundancy and automatic failover limit the impact of an attacker who forces excessive allocations, because spare capacity can absorb the load until the primary instance recovers.

prevents

SDLC practices include cleanup steps, yet the weakness can still occur if those steps are omitted.
