CVE-2026-128125 AIOHTTP: Unbounded cookie storage in client CookieJar

6.3 medium

Medium (6.3) in aio-libs aiohttp.

On this page
AIOHTTP is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. Prior to 3.14.4, Set-Cookie parsing treats unrecognized name=value attributes as additional cookies, while CookieJar does not limit the number of cookies stored or sent. A malicious server can make an aiohttp client accumulate a very large cookie set, consume memory and CPU repeatedly across redirects, and construct an excessively large Cookie header for later requests to the same domain. This issue is fixed in version 3.14.4.
