TL;DR

Affected versions of aiorwlock are vulnerable to a deadlock condition in the lock acquisition logic. Due to improper handling of waiting tasks during certain lock state transitions, a task may remain indefinitely blocked while holding or waiting for a lock. An attacker or user capable of triggering this condition could cause the application to hang or stop processing further tasks, resulting in a denial of service.

Who does this affect?

You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range.
