{"id":"GHSA-7mw3-79jq-xc7f","summary":"aiograpi has dependency on vulnerable orjson 3.11.4 (CVE-2025-67221)","details":"## Impact\n\naiograpi 0.6.6 / 0.7.0 / 0.7.1 declared `orjson==3.11.6` (and later `==3.11.8`) in `requirements.txt` but `setup.py` carried a hard-coded duplicate `requirements = [...]` list that was never updated and still pinned `orjson==3.11.4`.\n\nWhen `setuptools` builds the source distribution it reads the metadata from `setup.py`, not from `requirements.txt`. So `pip install aiograpi==0.6.6` (or 0.7.0 / 0.7.1) actually pulls `orjson==3.11.4` — a version vulnerable to **CVE-2025-67221** (stack overflow in `orjson.dumps` on deeply nested JSON inputs).\n\n## Practical exploitability\n\nLow in the typical aiograpi flow: `orjson` is used to encode request bodies aiograpi itself constructs and to decode responses returned by Instagram. An attacker would need to coerce aiograpi to encode an attacker-controlled deeply-nested Python structure or to decode an attacker-supplied stream — not the normal call shape.\n\nHowever any caller doing `client.public_request(...)` or similar with caller-controlled payloads, or any caller passing aiograpi-decoded `last_json` into recursive serialization, may hit the unbounded recursion. The patched orjson rejects deeply-nested inputs cleanly.\n\n## Patches\n\nFixed in **aiograpi 0.7.2** by migrating to `pyproject.toml` (PEP 621) — single source of truth for dependencies. PyPI installs of 0.7.2 and later resolve `orjson==3.11.8` correctly.\n\n## Workarounds\n\nForce-install a non-vulnerable orjson alongside the affected aiograpi version:\n\n```\npip install 'aiograpi==0.7.1' 'orjson\u003e=3.11.6'\n```\n\nOr just upgrade to a fixed aiograpi:\n\n```\npip install -U 'aiograpi\u003e=0.7.2'\n```\n\n## Resources\n\n- orjson CVE-2025-67221 advisory: https://github.com/ijl/orjson/security/advisories\n- aiograpi 0.7.2 changelog (security section): https://github.com/subzeroid/aiograpi/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#072--2026-04-27","modified":"2026-05-06T22:16:25.142012Z","published":"2026-05-06T22:06:11Z","database_specific":{"cwe_ids":["CWE-770"],"severity":"LOW","github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2026-05-06T22:06:11Z","nvd_published_at":null},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/subzeroid/aiograpi/security/advisories/GHSA-7mw3-79jq-xc7f"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/ijl/orjson/security/advisories"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/subzeroid/aiograpi"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/subzeroid/aiograpi/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#072--2026-04-27"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"aiograpi","ecosystem":"PyPI","purl":"pkg:pypi/aiograpi"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0.6.6"},{"fixed":"0.7.2"}]}],"versions":["0.6.6","0.7.0","0.7.1"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/05/GHSA-7mw3-79jq-xc7f/GHSA-7mw3-79jq-xc7f.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P"}]}
