Asymmetric denial of service In aiohttp
Description
AIOHTTP Affected by Denial of Service (DoS) via Unbounded DNS Cache in TCPConnector
Summary
An unbounded DNS cache could result in excessive memory usage possibly resulting in a DoS situation.
Impact
If an application makes requests to a very large number of hosts, this could cause the DNS cache to continue growing and slowly use excessive amounts of memory.
