Upgrade your dependency as follows:\n[`pip install aiohttp >= 3.7.4`]\n\n### Workarounds\n\nIf upgrading is not an option for you, a workaround can be to avoid using `aiohttp.web_middlewares.normalize_path_middleware` in your applications.\n\n### References\n\n* [aiohttp @ PyPI]\n* [GHSA-v6wp-4m6f-gcjg]\n* [OWASP page on open redirects]\n\n### For more
