aiohttp is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and
Python. Prior to version 3.10.2, static routes which contain files with
compressed variants (`.gz` or `.br` extension) are vulnerable to path
traversal outside the root directory if those variants are symbolic
links. The server protects static routes from path traversal outside the
root directory when `follow_symlinks=False` (default). It does this by
resolving the requested URL to an absolute path and then checking that
path relative to the root. However, these checks are not performed when
looking for compressed variants in the `FileResponse` class, and
symbolic links are then automatically followed when performing the
`Path.stat()` and `Path.open()` to send the file. Version 3.10.2
contains a patch for the issue.

CVE-2023-49081:
aiohttp is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and
Python. Improper validation made it possible for an attacker to modify
the HTTP request (e.g. to insert a new header) or create a new HTTP
request if the attacker controls the HTTP version. The vulnerability
only occurs if the attacker can control the HTTP version of the request.
This issue has been patched in version 3.9.0.

CVE-2024-30251:
aiohttp is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python.
In affected versions an attacker can send a specially crafted POST
(multipart/form-data) request. When the aiohttp server processes it, the server
will enter an infinite loop and be unable to process any further requests. An
attacker can stop the application from serving requests after sending a single
request. This issue has been addressed in version 3.9.4. Users are advised to
upgrade. Users unable to upgrade may manually apply a patch to their systems.
Please see the linked GHSA for instructions.

CVE-2024-52304:
aiohttp is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python.
Prior to version 3.10.11, the Python parser parses newlines in chunk extensions
incorrectly which can lead to request smuggling vulnerabilities under certain
conditions. If a pure Python version of aiohttp is installed (i.e. without the
usual C extensions) or `AIOHTTP_NO_EXTENSIONS` is enabled, then an attacker may
be able to execute a request smuggling attack to bypass certain firewalls or
proxy protections. Version 3.10.11 fixes the issue.

CVE-2023-49082:
aiohttp is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python.
Improper validation makes it possible for an attacker to modify the HTTP
request (e.g. insert a new header) or even create a new HTTP request if the
attacker controls the HTTP method. The vulnerability occurs only if the
attacker can control the HTTP method (GET, POST etc.) of the request. If the
attacker can control the HTTP version of the request it will be able to modify
the request (request smuggling). This issue has been patched in version 3.9.0.

CVE-2024-27306:
aiohttp is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python.
A XSS vulnerability exists on index pages for static file handling. This
vulnerability is fixed in 3.9.4. We have always recommended using a reverse
proxy server (e.g. nginx) for serving static files. Users following the
recommendation are unaffected. Other users can disable `show_index` if unable
to upgrade.

aiohttp is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework
for asyncio and Python.When using aiohttp as a web server
and configuring static routes, it is necessary to specify
the root path for static files. Additionally, the option
'follow_symlinks' can be used to determine whether to
follow symbolic links outside the static root directory.
When 'follow_symlinks' is set to True, there is no
validation to check if reading a file is within the root
directory. This can lead to directory traversal
vulnerabilities, resulting in unauthorized access to
arbitrary files on the system, even when symlinks are not
present. Disabling follow_symlinks and using a reverse proxy
are encouraged mitigations. Version 3.9.2 fixes this issue.
