GHSA-fh55-r93g-j68g
AIOHTTP Vulnerable to Cookie Parser Warning Storm
EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.
Blast Radius
aiohttpReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects PyPI packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
Summary
Reading multiple invalid cookies can lead to a logging storm.
Impact
If the cookies attribute is accessed in an application, then an attacker may be able to trigger a storm of warning-level logs using a specially crafted Cookie header.
Patch: https://github.com/aio-libs/aiohttp/commit/64629a0834f94e46d9881f4e99c41a137e1f3326

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for aiohttp. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Fix
Update aiohttp to 3.13.3 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-fh55-r93g-j68g is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-fh55-r93g-j68g is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to GHSA-fh55-r93g-j68g. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is GHSA-fh55-r93g-j68g in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-fh55-r93g-j68g across PyPI dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
