Summary
AIOHTTP vulnerable to DoS when bypassing asserts
Details

Summary

When assert statements are bypassed, an infinite loop can occur, resulting in a DoS attack when processing a POST body.

Impact

If optimisations are enabled (-O or PYTHONOPTIMIZE=1), and the application includes a handler that uses the Request.post() method, then an attacker may be able to execute a DoS attack with a specially crafted message.
