- Also known as: PYSEC-2026-1095, GHSA-V5PJ-JRPV-H6G2
- Severity: CVSS 5.9 (Medium), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=poc, automatable=no, technicalImpact=partial
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Published: 2025-03-20 · Updated: 2025-03-20

## Affected

- aimhubio aimhubio/aim: version range not reported
- aim (PyPI): through 3.25.0

## Description

A vulnerability in aimhubio/aim version 3.25.0 allows for a denial of service through the misuse of the sshfs-client. The tracking server, which is single-threaded, can be made unresponsive by requesting it to connect to an unresponsive socket via sshfs. The lack of an additional timeout setting in the sshfs-client causes the server to hang for a significant amount of time, preventing it from responding to other requests.
