cgi is only used for POST/PUT requests handling.

Documentation at https://docs.python.org/3.11/library/cgi.html suggests to have a look in multipart PyPi package at https://pypi.org/project/multipart/:

Deprecated since version 3.11, will be removed in version 3.13: The cgi module is deprecated (see PEP 594 for details and alternatives).

The FieldStorage class can typically be replaced with urllib.parse.parse_qsl() for GET and HEAD requests, and the email.message module or multipart for POST and PUT. Most utility functions have replacements.

Looking at https://github.com/defnull/multipart seems promising:

Features

Parses multipart/form-data and application/x-www-form-urlencoded.

Produces useful error messages in 'strict'-mode.

Gracefully handle uploads of unknown size (missing Content-Length header).

Fast memory mapped files (io.BytesIO) for small uploads.

Temporary files on disk for big uploads.

Memory and disk resource limits to prevent DOS attacks.

Fixes many shortcomings and bugs of cgi.FieldStorage.

100% test coverage.

Uh oh!

'cgi' is deprecated and slated for removal in Python 3.13 #23
