mime package WordDecoder.DecodeHeader function processes RFC 2047-encoded words
in MIME headers. Decoding a maliciously-crafted MIME header containing many invalid
encoded-words could consume excessive CPU, leading to denial of service. The MIME decoder
was updated to better handle this case.
KrakenD can receive such crafted headers from clients sending multipart requests or
via backend HTTP responses, making this potentially exploitable in proxied deployments.Community Edition
