Debian 10845 Published by

Debian released security updates for python-tornado and the GStreamer media plugins used across multiple distributions. The tornado update blocks attacks involving cookie injection and denial of service via multipart bodies. Meanwhile the GStreamer plugins address serious flaws where opening a malformed file could lead to code execution on the host machine.

Debian GNU/Linux 9 (Stretch) and 10 (Buster) ELTS:
ELA-1672-1 python-tornado security update

Debian GNU/Linux 11 (Bullseye) LTS:
[DLA 4520-1] python-tornado security update

Debian GNU/Linux 12 (Bookworm) and 13 (Trixie):
[DSA 6191-1] gst-plugins-ugly1.0 security update
[DSA 6190-1] gst-plugins-bad1.0 security update

Package : python-tornado
Version : 6.1.0-1+deb11u4
CVE ID : CVE-2026-31958
Debian Bug : 1130507 1132367

Tornado is a scalable, non-blocking Python web framework and
asynchronous networking library.

CVE-2026-31958

Introduce new limits on the size and complexity of multipart bodies,
including a default limit of 100 parts per request to mitigate a
possible DoS. It is also possible to disable parsing multipart/form-
data entirely if not required

GHSA-78cv-mqj4-43f7 (CVE not available yet)

Values passed to the domain, path, and samesite arguments of
RequestHandler.set_cookie are not completely validated. In
particular, semicolons are allowed, which could be used to inject
attacker-controlled values for other cookie attributes.

For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version
6.1.0-1+deb11u4.

We recommend that you upgrade your python-tornado packages.
