Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: body-parser versions prior to 1.20.3

Description: The issue concerns a denial of service vulnerability when URL encoding is enabled. A malicious actor can use a specially crafted payload to flood the server with a large number of requests, resulting in denial of service.

Recommendations: For versions prior to 1.20.3, update to version 1.20.3 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling URL encoding until a patch is available. Restrict access to the server to minimize the risk of exploitation.
