Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.118193
Category:General
Title:Python < 3.5.10, 3.6.x < 3.6.12, 3.7.x < 3.7.9, 3.8.x < 3.8.4 Python Issue (bpo-41004) - Windows
Summary:Python is prone to a denial of service (DoS) vulnerability.
Description:Summary:
Python is prone to a denial of service (DoS) vulnerability.

Vulnerability Insight:
Lib/ipaddress.py improperly computes hash values in the IPv4Interface
and IPv6Interface classes, which might allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service if an
application is affected by the performance of a dictionary containing IPv4Interface or IPv6Interface
objects, and this attacker can cause many dictionary entries to be created.

Affected Software/OS:
Python prior to version 3.5.10, versions 3.6.x prior to 3.6.12,
3.7.x prior to 3.7.9 and 3.8.x prior to 3.8.4.

Solution:
The vendor has released updates. Please see the references for
more information.
