Debian LTS Advisory DLA-4461-1 [email protected]
https://www.debian.org/lts/security/ Daniel Leidert
February 01, 2026 https://wiki.debian.org/LTS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : python-tornado
Version : 6.1.0-1+deb11u3
CVE ID : CVE-2025-67724 CVE-2025-67725 CVE-2025-67726
Debian Bug : 1122660 1122661 1122663
Tornado is a scalable, non-blocking Python web framework and
asynchronous networking library.
CVE-2025-67724
Custom reason phrases can cause multiple vulnerabilities (like XSS,
header injection, ...) due to being used unescaped in HTTP headers.
CVE-2025-67725
A single maliciously crafted HTTP request can cause a possible DoS
due to quadratic performance of repeated header lines.
CVE-2025-67726
An inefficient algorithm when parsing parameters for HTTP header
values can potentially cause a DoS.
For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version
6.1.0-1+deb11u3.
We recommend that you upgrade your python-tornado packages.
For the detailed security status of python-tornado please refer to
its security tracker page at:
