Affected: httplib2

httplib2 is a comprehensive HTTP client library for Python. Prior to 0.32.0, httplib2 performs unbounded decompression of HTTP response bodies encoded with Content-Encoding: gzip or deflate in _decompressContent in httplib2/init.py, allowing a malicious or compromised HTTP server to return a small compressed payload that expands to an arbitrarily large size in memory and causes MemoryError or OOM-kill in the client process. This issue is fixed in version 0.32.0.

 https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/usn-8537-1 USN-8537-1 — python-httplib2 vulnerability 2026-10-02T19:33:37.320424+00:00

Affected: Ubuntu:22.04:LTS: python-httplib2, Ubuntu:24.04:LTS: python-httplib2, Ubuntu:26.04:LTS: python-httplib2

It was discovered that httplib2 performed unbounded decompression of HTTP response bodies when the server used gzip or deflate Content-Encoding. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause httplib2 to use excessive resources, leading to a denial of service.
