AIOHTTP is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. Prior to 3.14.1, it is possible to bypass the max_line_size check in parts of an HTTP request in the C parser. If using the optimised C parser (the default in pre-built wheels), then an attacker may be able to send oversized lines through the HTTP parser and use an excessive amount of memory, potentially leading to DoS. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.14.1.

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2026:3208-1 advisory.

    - CVE-2026-50269: improper validation of user-controlled strings allows for CRLF injection in multipart     headers       (bsc#1268398).
    - CVE-2026-54273: no limit in the HTTP/1 pipelined request queue can lead to excessive resource     consumption       (bsc#1268543).
    - CVE-2026-54274: incomplete websocket frame payloads can bypass memory use limits and cause a DoS via     excessive       resource consumption (bsc#1268544).
    - CVE-2026-54275: `server_hostname` TLS SNI check bypass when an existing connection is reused     (bsc#1268549).
    - CVE-2026-54277: `max_line_size` bypass when using the optimised C HTTP parser can lead to excessive     resource       consumption (bsc#1268556).
    - CVE-2026-54278: unread compressed request bodies can bypass `client_max_size` during cleanup and cause a     DoS       (bsc#1268559).
    - CVE-2026-54279: host-only cookies become domain cookies after `CookieJar` persistence (bsc#1268560).
    - CVE-2026-54280: payload resources are not closed correctly when a client disconnects in the middle of a     write and       can cause resource starvation (bsc#1268561).

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of the aiohttp Python library installed on the remote host is prior to 3.14.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - Prior to 3.14.1, no limit was present on the number of pipelined requests that could be queued. An     attacker may be able to use pipelined requests to use excessive amounts of memory, potentially leading to     DoS. (CVE-2026-54273)

  - Prior to 3.14.1, the server_hostname TLS SNI check can be bypassed when an existing connection is reused.
    If an application makes multiple requests to the same domain, but with different per-request     server_hostname parameters, then the later calls may succeed by reusing the existing connection when they     should have been rejected due to the TLS SNI check. (CVE-2026-54275)

  - Prior to 3.14.1, it is possible to bypass the max_line_size check in parts of an HTTP request in the C     parser. If using the optimised C parser (the default in pre-built wheels), then an attacker may be able to     send oversized lines through the HTTP parser and use an excessive amount of memory, potentially leading to     DoS. (CVE-2026-54277)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - AIOHTTP is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. Prior to 3.14.1, it is     possible to bypass the max_line_size check in parts of an HTTP request in the C parser. If using the     optimised C parser (the default in pre-built wheels), then an attacker may be able to send oversized lines     through the HTTP parser and use an excessive amount of memory, potentially leading to DoS. This     vulnerability is fixed in 3.14.1. (CVE-2026-54277)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
