CVE-2026-54278 | BDVDB-2026-342124 Detail

aio-libsaiohttp

Description#

AIOHTTP is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. Prior to 3.14.1, during cleanup it is possible for a compressed request body to be decompressed into memory in one chunk. An attacker may be able to send a compressed payload in specific situations that could be decompressed into memory, potentially leading to DoS (a zip bomb edge case). This vulnerability is fixed in 3.14.1.

Impact#

Per CVSS v4.0: confidentiality impact none, integrity impact none, availability impact high. Attack vector: network.
