NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python-scrapy package and not the python-scrapy package as distributed by Debian.
See How to fix? for Debian:14 relevant fixed versions and status.
Scrapy versions up to 2.13.2 are vulnerable to a denial of service (DoS) attack due to a flaw in its brotli decompression implementation. The protection mechanism against decompression bombs fails to mitigate the brotli variant, allowing remote servers to crash clients with less than 80GB of available memory. This occurs because brotli can achieve extremely high compression ratios for zero-filled data, leading to excessive memory consumption during decompression.
