How to Fix CVE-2026-34514

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Aiohttp dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

aiohttp fixed: 3.13.4 
pip install aiohttp>=3.13.4
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

pip show aiohttp

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Python environment is affected by CVE-2026-34514, inspect your installed packages using pip:

pip show aiohttp

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Aiohttp in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 3.13.4), your application is affected.

Note: The pip show aiohttp command checks currently installed packages in your active Python environment.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-113: Improper Neutralization of CRLF Sequences in HTTP Headers ('HTTP Request/Response Splitting'), where the product receives data from an http agent/component (e.g., web server, proxy, browser, etc.), but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes cr and lf characters before the data is included in outgoing http headers. In Aiohttp, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

### Summary An attacker who controls the `content_type` parameter in aiohttp could use this to inject extra headers or similar exploits. ### Impact If an application allows untrusted data to be used for the multipart `content_type` parameter when constructing a request, an attacker may be able to manipulate the request to send something other than what the developer intended. ----- Patch: https://github.com/aio-libs/aiohttp/commit/9a6ada97e2c6cf1ce31727c6c9fcea17c21f6f06
