Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Coraza (github.com/corazawaf/coraza/v3) versions from 3.0.0 before 3.8.1 silently drop request arguments once the per-collection ArgumentLimit (default 1000) is reached, so ARGS-targeted rules never see the dropped values. A remote attacker can pad a request with filler parameters to evade such rules without any error being raised. Upgrade to version 3.8.1, which fixes the issue. The source gives few details on the other mitigations described.
