AIOHTTP: File descriptor exhaustion in multipart requests

State: Published
Severity: 8.2 High
Published: Oct 19, 2026
Updated: Oct 20, 2026
Reserved: Oct 15, 2026

Description

AIOHTTP is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. From 2.0.0 until 3.14.4, multipart request processing can retain an unbounded number of open file descriptors. An unauthenticated attacker can consequently exhaust file descriptors with specially crafted multipart requests when a handler uses Request.post(). This issue is fixed in version 3.14.4.
