An attacker can exploit the memory leak by sending a large number of crafted requests that trigger the `MatchInfoError`, causing unique cache entries to accumulate without being cleared. As a result, the server's memory resources are gradually depleted, potentially leading to system crashes or performance degradation. The impact can be significant, especially in high-traffic environments where attackers can send hundreds of thousands or millions of requests, making it a critical issue for any service relying on `aiohttp` for handling web requests, particularly those using middlewares.", "threat_severity": "Important"}
