What is CVE-2024-31217?

The Strapi content management system presents a denial-of-service vulnerability in its media upload process prior to version 4.22.0. This flaw allows users with access to file uploads to exploit the system, causing a server crash that disrupts availability for all clients. Unlike typical application errors that log incidents while keeping the server operational, this vulnerability halts server execution entirely, requiring a manual restart to restore service. The issue is present in both development and production environments, making it critical for users to upgrade the @strapi/plugin-upload to version 4.22.0 to mitigate the risks.
