CVE-2026-128124

HIGHCVSS 8.2/10

Last modified

CVE-2026-128124 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.2/10 on the CVSS scale. AIOHTTP is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. Prior to 3.14.4, Application.add_domain() converts every asterisk wildcard in a domain mask into a greedy regular-expression fragment, so a mask containing two or more wildcards can take polynomial time to reject a long Host header that does not match.

Description

AIOHTTP is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. Prior to 3.14.4, Application.add_domain() converts every asterisk wildcard in a domain mask into a greedy regular-expression fragment, so a mask containing two or more wildcards can take polynomial time to reject a long Host header that does not match. A remote attacker can repeatedly send such headers to a server configured with a multi-wildcard domain mask and stall the event loop. This issue is fixed in version 3.14.4.
