Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2021.0165
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2021-0165)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'python, python3' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0165 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'python, python3' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0165 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Updated python and python3 security vulnerability:

The package python/cpython is vulnerable to Web Cache Poisoning via
urllib.parse.parse_qsl and urllib.parse.parse_qs by using a vector called
parameter cloaking. When the attacker can separate query parameters using
a semicolon (,), they can cause a difference in the interpretation of the
request between the proxy (running with default configuration) and the
server. This can result in malicious requests being cached as completely
safe ones, as the proxy would usually not see the semicolon as a separator,
and therefore would not include it in a cache key of an unkeyed parameter
(CVE-2021-23336).

Affected Software/OS:
'python, python3' package(s) on Mageia 7, Mageia 8.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
4.0

CVSS Vector:
