  - AIOHTTP is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. Prior to 3.14.2, the HTTP
    parsers were vulnerable to a request smuggling attack relating to WebSocket upgrades. If using the server-
    side component, an attacker may be able to execute a request smuggling vulnerability using an edge case in
    the WebSocket upgrade procedure. A WebSocket upgrade request with a body could cause the parser to switch
    protocols before the complete request body was received, leaving trailing bytes to be handled as upgraded-
    protocol or pipelined data rather than normal HTTP body data. This issue is fixed in version 3.14.2.
