Category:	Buffer overflow
Title:	Python 2.7.x < 2.7.15 Heap-Based Buffer Overflow Vulnerability Python Issue (bpo-31530) - Mac OS X
Summary:	Python is prone to a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability.
Description:	Summary: Python is prone to a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability. Vulnerability Insight: The flaw exists due to an improper notification mechanism on buffer reallocation and corruption in a file's internal readahead buffer which, while processing large amounts of data with multiple threads, could create a condition where a buffer that gets allocated with one thread is reallocated due to a large size of input. Vulnerability Impact: Successful exploitation will allow an attacker to cause a heap-based buffer overflow. Affected Software/OS: Python 2.7.x before version 2.7.15. Solution: Update to version 2.7.15 or later. CVSS Score: 3.3 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:P
