Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2014.0216
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2014-0216)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'python3' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2014-0216 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'python3' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2014-0216 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
It was reported that a patch added to Python 3.2 caused a race condition
where a file created could be created with world read/write permissions
instead of the permissions dictated by the original umask of the process.
This could allow a local attacker that could win the race to view and edit
files created by a program using this call. Note that prior versions of
Python, including 2.x, do not include the vulnerable _get_masked_mode()
function that is used by os.makedirs() when exist_ok is set to True
(CVE-2014-2667).

Affected Software/OS:
'python3' package(s) on Mageia 3, Mageia 4.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
3.3

CVSS Vector:
AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:N
