AIOHTTP: Out-of-bounds heap read in C HTTP response parser error path (malformed chunked response)
Packages
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Summary
An out-of-bounds heap read could occur in the C response parser while building an error message for a malformed response.
### Impact
An attacker controlled server, or possibly an accidental response could trigger a DoS in the client.
### Workaround
If unable to upgrade, the Python parser is unaffected and can be used with `AIOHTTP_NO_EXTENSIONS=1`.
