Echo: aiohttp: security update to 3.9.0

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 459850

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. Improper validation makes
 it possible for an attacker to modify the HTTP request (e.g. insert a new header) or even create a new
 HTTP request if the attacker controls the HTTP method. The vulnerability occurs only if the attacker can
 control the HTTP method (GET, POST etc.) of the request. If the attacker can control the HTTP version of
 the request it will be able to modify the request (request smuggling). This issue has been patched in
 version 3.9.0. (CVE-2023-49082)

Solution

Update the aiohttp library and its related packages to version 3.9.0 or later.
