Vulnerability in python-aiohttp (UBUNTU-CVE-2025-69223)

Summary

Vulnerability in python-aiohttp (UBUNTU-CVE-2025-69223). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure. Mitigation: upgrade to 3.11.16-1ubuntu0.1 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

AIOHTTP is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. Versions 3.13.2 and below allow a zip bomb to be used to execute a DoS against the AIOHTTP server. An attacker may be able to send a compressed request that when decompressed by AIOHTTP could exhaust the host's memory. This issue is fixed in version 3.13.3.

Response actions

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order

1
Identify exposure identify
```
grep -r 'python-aiohttp' . | grep -v node_modules
```
リポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で python-aiohttp を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。
2
Apply patch patch
```
Upgrade python-aiohttp to 3.11.16-1ubuntu0.1
```
ステージング環境で 3.11.16-1ubuntu0.1 に上げて回帰テスト → 本番反映。回帰テストはアプリの主要ハッピーパスを含めること。
3
Post-deployment verification verify
```
Confirm patched version is live in production
```
パッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番ではアクセスログ・WAF でアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
