VCID-bhkk-2b7c-wfgr aiohttp vulnerable to Denial of Service when trying to parse malformed POST requests ### Summary 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. ### Impact An attacker can stop the application from serving requests after sending a single request. ------- For anyone needing to patch older versions of aiohttp, the minimum diff needed to resolve the issue is (located in `_read_chunk_from_length()`): ```diff diff --git a/aiohttp/multipart.py b/aiohttp/multipart.py index 227be605c..71fc2654a 100644 --- a/aiohttp/multipart.py +++ b/aiohttp/multipart.py @@ -338,6 +338,8 @@ class BodyPartReader: assert self._length is not None, "Content-Length required for chunked read" chunk_size = min(size, self._length - self._read_bytes) chunk = await self._content.read(chunk_size) + if self._content.at_eof(): + self._at_eof = True return chunk async def _read_chunk_from_stream(self, size: int) -> bytes: ``` This does however introduce some very minor issues with handling form data. So, if possible, it would be recommended to also backport the changes in: https://github.com/aio-libs/aiohttp/commit/cebe526b9c34dc3a3da9140409db63014bc4cf19 https://github.com/aio-libs/aiohttp/commit/7eecdff163ccf029fbb1ddc9de4169d4aaeb6597 https://github.com/aio-libs/aiohttp/commit/f21c6f2ca512a026ce7f0f6c6311f62d6a638866 CVE-2024-30251
GHSA-5m98-qgg9-wh84
VCID-t2aj-cszz-tyd7 aiohttp is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. Affected versions of aiohttp have a security vulnerability regarding the inconsistent interpretation of the http protocol. HTTP/1.1 is a persistent protocol, if both Content-Length(CL) and Transfer-Encoding(TE) header values are present it can lead to incorrect interpretation of two entities that parse the HTTP and we can poison other sockets with this incorrect interpretation. A possible Proof-of-Concept (POC) would be a configuration with a reverse proxy(frontend) that accepts both CL and TE headers and aiohttp as backend. As aiohttp parses anything with chunked, we can pass a chunked123 as TE, the frontend entity will ignore this header and will parse Content-Length. The impact of this vulnerability is that it is possible to bypass any proxy rule, poisoning sockets to other users like passing Authentication Headers, also if it is present an Open Redirect an attacker could combine it to redirect random users to another website and log the request. This vulnerability has been addressed in release 3.8.0 of aiohttp. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability. CVE-2023-47641

PYSEC-2023-247
VCID-ue33-na1g-rqa7 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-2023-49082
