Summary
Updated python-hpack packages fix a security vulnerability
Details

An issue was found in the python-hyper/hpack library, most commonly used as a downstream dependency of the python-hyper/h2 library (an HTTP/2 client and server implementation). Unbounded variable integer decoding can cause run-away computation on malformed input leading to O(n^2) runtime, effectively blocking further processing with large enough unsanitized input. A fix python-hyper/hpack v4.2.0 restricts variable integer decoding to uint32 to prevent run-away computation.
