    Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 2 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2025-66471:
    urllib3 is a user-friendly HTTP client library for Python. Starting in version 1.0 and prior to 2.6.0, the
    Streaming API improperly handles highly compressed data. urllib3's streaming API is designed for the
    efficient handling of large HTTP responses by reading the content in chunks, rather than loading the
    entire response body into memory at once. When streaming a compressed response, urllib3 can perform
    decoding or decompression based on the HTTP Content-Encoding header (e.g., gzip, deflate, br, or zstd).
    The library must read compressed data from the network and decompress it until the requested chunk size is
    met. Any resulting decompressed data that exceeds the requested amount is held in an internal buffer for
    the next read operation. The decompression logic could cause urllib3 to fully decode a small amount of
    highly compressed data in a single operation. This can result in excessive resource consumption (high CPU
    usage and massive memory allocation for the decompressed data.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
