python3-werkzeug: fix for CVE-2023-25577

Werkzeug is a comprehensive WSGI web application library. Prior to
version 2.2.3, Werkzeug's multipart form data parser will parse an
unlimited number of parts, including file parts. Parts can be a
small amount of bytes, but each requires CPU time to parse and may
use more memory as Python data. If a request can be made to an
endpoint that accesses `request.data`, `request.form`, `request.files`,
or `request.get_data(parse_form_data=False)`, it can cause unexpectedly
high resource usage. This allows an attacker to cause a denial of
service by sending crafted multipart data to an endpoint that will
parse it. The amount of CPU time required can block worker processes
from handling legitimate requests. The amount of RAM required can
trigger an out of memory kill of the process. Unlimited file parts
can use up memory and file handles. If many concurrent requests are
sent continuously, this can exhaust or kill all available workers.
Version 2.2.3 contains a patch for this issue.
