| **Learning:** Even fast standard library functions like `PurePosixPath` and string replacements can cause significant lag when chained on strings in the megabytes. String processing operations should always bound their inputs first if the input is untrusted and can be arbitrarily large. | ||
| **Prevention:** Cap the length of client-provided filename strings early by slicing them (e.g. `filename = filename[-512:]`) before doing more complex string parsing or regex replacements, especially when only the basename suffix is relevant. | ||

multipart 파싱 단계에도 크기 제한을 추가하세요.
Form(max_length=50)은 multipart 파싱 이후에 적용됩니다. 인증된 호출자도 큰 language 또는 mode 파트를 보내 파싱 중 메모리를 소모할 수 있습니다. multipart 파서 또는 ingress에서 파트 크기와 전체 body 크기를 먼저 제한하세요. Form(max_length=50)은 문자 길이 검증으로 유지하세요.

길이 제한 검증 경로를 직접 확인하세요.
"x" * 51은 max_length가 없어도 normalize_language와 normalize_mode의 허용 목록에서 거부됩니다. 또한 현재 검증은 JSON에 detail 키가 있는지만 확인합니다. 따라서 Form(max_length=50)을 제거해도 두 테스트가 422로 통과할 수 있습니다.
각 테스트에서 해당 normalizer가 입력을 허용하도록 monkeypatch하세요. parse_pdf는 호출되면 실패하도록 설정하세요. 그 다음 detail에서 각각 language와 mode의 길이 검증 오류를 확인하세요.

The generated change added
Form(max_length=50)tolanguageandmodeand described that as prevention of multipart parser memory exhaustion. The 50-character constraint is useful semantic validation, but FastAPI/Pydantic applies it after Starlette has parsed the multipart request. It therefore cannot be the causal control for bytes already accepted/spooled/parsed before endpoint validation.The repository currently locks Starlette 1.3.1. That version is patched for
GHSA-82w8-qh3p-5jfq; Starlette's form parser also has multipart field/file-count and non-file part-size limits. Those facts make the original blanket “unbounded form field” diagnosis inaccurate. They do not create a total raw-body cap for an uploaded file: the route-levelUploadFile.sizeand 20 MiB streaming checks still execute after multipart parsing has admitted the request.Authoritative references:

tests/test_body_limit.pyexercises the ASGI boundary without allocating a 20+ MiB synthetic payload: early declared-length rejection, understated-header bypass attempt, exact-limit admission, malformed/duplicated/negative header handling, disconnect forwarding, route scoping, response-start safety, configuration rejection, and the FastAPI integration invariant that authentication precedes body admission while an authorized oversized request receives a security-header-bearing 413.The generated 51-character
language/modetests remain as semantic-validation regressions.The branch-generated repository-wide
.jules/sentinel.mdlesson was removed by adopting the exact protected blob as a normal non-force descendant. No repository-wide doctrine claims thatForm(max_length=50)is a pre-parser DoS control.Exact-head hosted evidence
