Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis

The vulnerability stems from missing Origin header validation during WebSocket handshakes. The Server.handle_request function manages connection setup, and WebSocketTransport implementations (like aiohttp's _handle_websocket) process handshakes. Pre-3.9.0 versions lacked Origin checks in these functions, allowing attackers to establish unauthorized WebSocket connections using stolen cookies. The patch explicitly added Origin validation to these critical points in the connection lifecycle.
