Ticket
https://openscience.atlassian.net/browse/ENG-8501
Purpose
Summary
When Tornado's multipart/form-data parser encounters certain errors, it logs a warning but continues trying to parse the remainder of the data. This allows remote attackers to generate an extremely high volume of logs, constituting a DoS attack. This DoS is compounded by the fact that the logging subsystem is synchronous.
Affected versions
All versions of Tornado prior to 6.5 are affected. The vulnerable parser is enabled by default.
Changes
Upgrade to Tornado version 6.5. In the meantime, risk can be mitigated by blocking Content-Type: multipart/form-data in a proxy. It looks like there is no breaking changings in backlog https://www.tornadoweb.org/en/stable/releases/v6.5.0.html , so no code changings is needed.
added the changing to the PR #395 to keep it changings .
Side effects
MFR rely on waterbutler so WB merging is needed to be done first of all to keep system consistent, am going to update back to #waterbutler = { git = "https://github.com/CenterForOpenScience/waterbutler.git", branch = feature/buff-worms" } after the updates CenterForOpenScience/waterbutler#461 will be merged
QA Notes
FYI:
I see that Tornado has 6.5.1 version already that looks to be more stable with non latin chars (locally it goes ok with testing such a chars for 6.5.0 but there is many of them so maybe it is better to migrate to 6.5.1)?
