Severity: moderate

Affected versions:

- Apache Struts 2.0.0 through 2.5.31
- Apache Struts 6.1.2.1 through 6.3.0

Description:

When a Multipart request is performed but some of the fields exceed the maxStringLength  limit, the upload files will 
remain in struts.multipart.saveDir  even if the request has been denied.
Users are recommended to upgrade to versions Struts 2.5.32 or 6.1.2.2 or Struts 6.3.0.1 or greater, which fixe this 
issue.
