      "title": "Zapros has an Unbounded Content-Encoding decompression chain that allows denial of service",
      "summary": "Zapros, a Python HTTP client, prior to version 0.14.0 is vulnerable to denial of service when an application requests content from an untrusted server, or follows a redirect to one, because a malicious response containing an excessive number of chained `Content-Encoding` values causes Zapros to construct a deeply nested decompression chain that consumes excessive resources. Version 0.14.0 patches the vulnerability by limiting responses to five content-encoding layers and raising `DecodingError` when that limit is exceeded. As a workaround, applications can add response middleware that inspects the `Content-Encoding` header and rejects responses containing more than a safe number of encoding layers.",
