Description
Race condition in ZEO/StorageServer.py in Zope Object Database (ZODB) before 3.10.0a2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon outage) by establishing and then immediately closing a TCP connection, leading to the accept function having an unexpected return value of None, an unexpected value of None for the address, or an ECONNABORTED, EAGAIN, or EWOULDBLOCK error, a related issue to CVE-2010-3492.

Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for zodb3, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update zodb3 to 3.10.0a2 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2010-3495 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
Cap what an attacker can consume: apply request size, rate and timeout limits in front of the affected component, and run it with memory and CPU limits so exhaustion degrades one worker rather than the whole service.
