Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.170806 |
Category: | Denial of Service |
Title: | Python Multiple Vulnerabilities (Aug 2024) - Windows |
Summary: | Python is prone to an infinite loop vulnerability leading to a; denial of service (DoS). |
Description: | Summary: Python is prone to an infinite loop vulnerability leading to a denial of service (DoS). Vulnerability Insight: The following flaws exist: - CVE-2024-6232: Regular expressions that allowed excessive backtracking during tarfile.TarFile header parsing are vulnerable to ReDoS via specifically-crafted tar archives. - CVE-2024-7592: When parsing cookies that contained backslashes for quoted characters in the cookie value, the parser would use an algorithm with quadratic complexity, resulting in excess CPU resources being used while parsing the value. - CVE-2024-8088: When iterating over names of entries in a zip archive (for example, methods of 'zipfile.Path' like 'namelist()', 'iterdir()', etc) the process can be put into an infinite loop with a maliciously crafted zip archive. This defect applies when reading only metadata or extracting the contents of the zip archive.This vulnerability only affects zipfile.Path, while the more common API zipfile.ZipFile class is unaffected. - CVE-2024-45490, CVE-2024-45491, CVE-2024-45492: vulnerabilities in libexpat prior to version 2.6.3 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 3.12.6. Solution: Update to version 3.8.20, 3.9.20, 3.10.15, 3.11.10, 3.12.6 or later. CVSS Score: 10.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
