Summary

AIOHTTP before 3.14.2 in the WebSocket client accepts and decompresses frames with the RSV1 bit set even without negotiating the permessage-deflate extension. A malicious server can cause unexpected CPU and memory consumption.

Original NVD description (English source)

AIOHTTP is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. Prior to 3.14.2, the WebSocket client accepts and decompresses frames with the RSV1 bit set even when the permessage-deflate extension was not negotiated, allowing a malicious server to cause unexpected CPU and memory consumption. This issue is fixed in version 3.14.2.
