SCA: security update for aiohttp (GHSA-g84x-mcqj-x9qq)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 436572

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- AIOHTTP is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. In versions 3.13.2 and
below, handling of chunked messages can result in excessive blocking CPU usage when receiving a large
number of chunks. If an application makes use of the request.read() method in an endpoint, it may be
possible for an attacker to cause the server to spend a moderate amount of blocking CPU time (e.g. 1
second) while processing the request. This could potentially lead to DoS as the server would be unable to
handle other requests during that time. This issue is fixed in version 3.13.3. (CVE-2025-69229)
