Severity: LOW
Package: aiohttp @ 3.13.5
Fixed in: 3.14.0

AIOHTTP is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. Prior to 3.14.0, attacker-controlled input included into multipart/payload headers can be used to modify a request to inject additional headers or similar. In the unlikely situation that an application is passing user-controlled strings into MultipartWriter.append(headers=...) or Payload.headers, then an attacker may be able to modify the request to inject headers or change the contents of the request. This vulnerabi

Not exploitable here. CVE-2026-50269 requires passing user-controlled strings into MultipartWriter.append(headers=...); there is no direct aiohttp usage at all. aiohttp enters this stack only as a transitive client dependency of the fsspec cloud-storage backends (s3fs / gcsfs / adlfs via aiobotocore — uv tree --invert --package aiohttp), talking to fixed, trusted storage endpoints. Nothing in the repo runs an aiohttp server or imports aiohttp directly.

Bumped anyway (defense in depth): aiohttp 3.13.5 → 3.14.1 in 65c31cf88f (uv.lock + pkg-manifest; pyproject floor raised for direct deps). Advisory link is in the issue body.
