Overview

Investigate adding protection against large request bodies to prevent potential DoS attacks in the ParseRequest function.

Details

  • Consider implementing http.MaxBytesReader with a configurable size limit (suggested 1MB)
  • Evaluate the appropriate size limit for the use case
  • Consider making the limit configurable

References

Impact

Adding this protection would help prevent:

  • Memory exhaustion from large payloads
  • Potential DoS attacks
  • Unnecessary resource consumption
