Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2021.0054
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2021-0054)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'python-pip' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0054 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'python-pip' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0054 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
It was discovered that pip did not properly sanitize the filename during pip
install. A remote attacker could possible use this issue to read and write
arbitrary files on the host filesystem as root, resulting in a directory
traversal attack (CVE-2019-20916).

urllib3 before 1.25.9 allows CRLF injection if the attacker controls the HTTP
request method, as demonstrated by inserting CR and LF control characters in
the first argument of putrequest(). The python-pip package bundles a copy of
python-urllib3, which was affected by this issue. The bundled copy was
patched to fix the issue (CVE-2020-26137).

Affected Software/OS:
'python-pip' package(s) on Mageia 7.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
6.4
