Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Apache Tomcat (org.apache.tomcat:tomcat, tomcat-catalina, and tomcat-embed-core) is affected in versions 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.11, 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.46, 9.0.0.M1 through 9.0.109, and 8.5.0 through 8.5.100 (EOL). When an error or limit is exceeded during multipart upload processing, temporary files are not deleted immediately and wait for garbage collection, so disk space can fill faster than it is freed, causing a denial of service. Upgrade to 11.0.12, 10.1.47, or 9.0.110 or later.
