NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python-aiohttp package and not the python-aiohttp package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:13 relevant fixed versions and status.

aiohttp is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. In aiohttp before version 3.7.4 there is an open redirect vulnerability. A maliciously crafted link to an aiohttp-based web-server could redirect the browser to a different website. It is caused by a bug in the aiohttp.web_middlewares.normalize_path_middleware middleware. This security problem has been fixed in 3.7.4. Upgrade your dependency using pip as follows "pip install aiohttp >= 3.7.4". If upgrading is not an option for you, a workaround can be to avoid using aiohttp.web_middlewares.normalize_path_middleware in your applications.
