Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Pydantic AI versions from 1.77.0 before 1.107.6, and from 2.0.0b1 before 2.44.0, are vulnerable, as are pydantic-ai-slim versions in the same ranges. The local web_fetch tool processes server-controlled responses in ways whose running time grows quadratically, blocking the event loop for the whole process. An attacker who can steer an agent exposed to untrusted prompts to fetch a crafted page of a megabyte or two can stall other agent runs and requests for minutes. This is an availability issue only. Upgrade to pydantic-ai 1.107.6 or 2.44.0, or pydantic-ai-slim to the same fixed versions.
