CVE-2026-111748

AIOHTTP: Absolute-form request targets can spoof Request.scheme

Published Oct 19, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 6.3 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
AIOHTTP is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. Prior to 3.14.4, an attacker can send an absolute-form request that causes Request.scheme to use attacker-controlled request-target scheme data instead of the connection protocol. Applications that use Request.scheme for security decisions can consequently be tricked into treating an unencrypted connection as encrypted or an encrypted connection as unencrypted. This issue is fixed in version 3.14.4.
