CVE-2026-111066 · Severity: high · CVSS 4 · Published 2026-10-19

AIOHTTP is a Python HTTP client/server framework. An unauthenticated attacker can send specially crafted multipart requests to exhaust file descriptors on the server, potentially causing service degradation or denial of service. This occurs when the application uses Request.post() to handle multipart data.

Technologies: Aio-Libs Aiohttp, aiohttp (PyPI). Vendors: Aio-Libs, PyPI.

```

Technical details

The vulnerability exists in multipart request processing in AIOHTTP versions 2.0.0 through 3.14.3, where handlers using Request.post() fail to properly manage file descriptors, leaving an unbounded number open. An unauthenticated attacker can craft multipart requests that trigger this leak, exhausting system resources. The fix switches multipart handling to use spooled temporary files to bound file descriptor usage.
