Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.881951
Category:CentOS Local Security Checks
Title:CentOS Update for python-jinja2 CESA-2014:0747 centos6
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'python-jinja2'; package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'python-jinja2'
package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Jinja2 is a template engine written in pure Python. It
provides a Django-inspired, non-XML syntax but supports inline expressions and
an optional sandboxed environment.

It was discovered that Jinja2 did not properly handle bytecode cache files
stored in the system's temporary directory. A local attacker could use this
flaw to alter the output of an application using Jinja2 and
FileSystemBytecodeCache, and potentially execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of that application. (CVE-2014-1402)

All python-jinja2 users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,
which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. For the update to
take effect, all applications using python-jinja2 must be restarted.

Affected Software/OS:
python-jinja2 on CentOS 6

Solution:
Please install the updated packages.

CVSS Score:
4.4
