Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

The aiohttp package is vulnerable before version 3.14.1. An attacker who can reach a web application's WebSocket endpoint can send large, incomplete WebSocket frame payloads that bypass the usual memory size limits, which may allow a denial-of-service attack through excessive memory use. Upgrade to aiohttp 3.14.1 or later. The source gives few details about the exact conditions required.
