- Affected

- Issue
- Wrong usage of the TYPO3 FAL API results in copies of processed files being saved to the /var/transient/ folder of a TYPO3 website on every frontend request. This can result in Denial of Service, since the webspace may be filled up with image files simply by crafting a large amount of requests to the website.
Recommended action: Upgrade to 1.0.2 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
