fedora
Calendar Grey May 31, 2025
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Updated python-tornado addresses a cookie parsing vulnerability in Fedora 41, enhancing both security and reliability.
This contains the backported fix for CVE-2024-52804 (cookie parsing DoS vuln)

Summary

Tornado is an open source version of the scalable, non-blocking web

server and tools.

The framework is distinct from most mainstream web server frameworks

(and certainly most Python frameworks) because it is non-blocking and

reasonably fast. Because it is non-blocking and uses epoll, it can

handle thousands of simultaneous standing connections, which means it is

ideal for real-time web services.

Update Information:

This contains the backported fix for CVE-2024-52804 (cookie parsing DoS vuln)

Change Log

* Tue May 20 2025 Robby Callicotte - 6.3.3-9 - Backported fix for CVE-2024-52804
