AIOHTTP: WebSocket client accepts compressed frames without negotiated permessage-deflate
Packages
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Summary
The client accepts and decompresses frames with the RSV1 bit set even when the `permessage-deflate` extension was not negotiated.
### Impact
A client may unexpectedly decompress WebSocket frames when explicitly opted out. This could lead to additional CPU/memory consumption, but is unlikely to be a significant issue unless a zip bomb vulnerability or similar is also present.
