Vulnerability in aiohttp (CVE-2026-47265)
Summary
Vulnerability in aiohttp (CVE-2026-47265). Confidential information can be exposed externally. Exploitable via cookies. Mitigation: upgrade to 3.14.0 or later.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Summary
Cookies set with the cookies parameter on requests are sent after following a cross-origin redirect.
Impact
If a developer uses the cookies parameter on a per-request basis then sensitive data might be leaked to an attacker if they manage to control a redirect.
Workaround
If unable to upgrade, using a Cookie header in the headers parameter is not vulnerable.
Patch: https://github.com/aio-libs/aiohttp/commit/f54c40851b0d6c4bbdab97ba518a223adda32478
