Title:	Python Access Control Vulnerability (May 2024) - Windows
Summary:	Python is prone to an access control vulnerability.
Description:	Summary: Python is prone to an access control vulnerability. Vulnerability Insight: On Windows a directory returned by tempfile.mkdtemp() would not always have permissions set to restrict reading and writing to the temporary directory by other users, instead usually inheriting the correct permissions from the default location. Alternate configurations or users without a profile directory may not have the intended permissions. Affected Software/OS: Python prior to version 3.8.20, 3.9.x prior to 3.9.20, 3.10.x prior to 3.10.15, 3.11.x prior to 3.11.10 and 3.12.x prior to 3.12.4. Solution: Update to version 3.8.20, 3.9.20, 3.10.15, 3.11.10, 3.12.4 or later. CVSS Score: 5.5 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:P/I:P/A:N
