Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2021.0171
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2021-0171)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'python-bottle' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0171 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'python-bottle' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0171 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Updated python-bottle packages fix security vulnerability:

python-bottle before 0.12.19 is vulnerable to Web Cache Poisoning by using
a vector called parameter cloaking. When the attacker can separate query
parameters using a semicolon (,), they can cause a difference in the
interpretation of the request between the proxy (running with default
configuration) and the server. This can result in malicious requests being
cached as completely safe ones, as the proxy would usually not see the
semicolon as a separator, and therefore would not include it in a cache key
of an unkeyed parameter (CVE-2020-28473).

Affected Software/OS:
'python-bottle' package(s) on Mageia 7.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
5.8
