Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
The aiohttp package before 3.14.2 has an HTTP request smuggling flaw in its HTTP parsers, triggered by an edge case in the WebSocket upgrade procedure. The source does not describe the exact conditions, but it applies only when the server-side component is in use, and an attacker could use it to smuggle requests. Upgrade aiohttp to version 3.14.2 or later.
