Summary
CVE-2026-82397 affecting package python-tornado 6.3.3-11
Details

Tornado is a Python web framework and asynchronous networking library. Prior to 6.5.8, Tornado parses application/x-www-form-urlencoded request bodies with urllib.parse.parseqs in tornado/escape.py without passing maxnumfields. RequestHandler.execute in tornado/web.py parses the body before handler dispatch through HTTPServerRequest.parsebody and parsebodyarguments in tornado/httputil.py, so an unauthenticated request body containing millions of separator-delimited fields can synchronously stall the single-threaded event loop and delay every connection. The body is bounded only by maxbuffersize, which defaults to 104857600 bytes. This issue is fixed in version 6.5.8.
