CVE-2025-61726

Go standard library net/url, Cryostat 4 on RHEL 9, HawtIO HawtIO 4.3.1

The net/url package does not set a limit on the number of query parameters in a query. While the maximum size of query parameters in URLs is generally limited by the maximum request header size, the net/http.Request.ParseForm method can parse large URL-encoded forms. Parsing a large form containing many unique query parameters can cause excessive memory consumption.
