CVE-2026-128126

AIOHTTP: Too many URL-encoded form fields block the event loop

Published Nov 13, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 8.7 High EPSS n/a KEV · Not listed
Description
AIOHTTP is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. Prior to 3.14.4, Request.post() does not limit the number of fields in a URL-encoded form body, and inserting many repeated keys into MultiDict takes quadratic time on the event loop. A remote attacker can send a form POST within client_max_size to a handler that calls Request.post() and block the event loop. This issue is fixed in version 3.14.4.
