1. Summary:

An update for python27-babel, python27-python, python27-python-jinja2, and
python27-python-pygments is now available for Red Hat Software Collections.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which
gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from
the CVE link(s) in the References section.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Software Collections for Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 7) - noarch, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64
Red Hat Software Collections for Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server EUS (v. 7.7) - noarch, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64

3. Description:

Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming
language, which includes modules, classes, exceptions, very high level
dynamic data types and dynamic typing. Python supports interfaces to many
system calls and libraries, as well as to various windowing systems.

Security Fix(es):

* python: Unsafe use of eval() on data retrieved via HTTP in the test suite
(CVE-2020-27619)

* python-jinja2: ReDoS vulnerability due to the sub-pattern
(CVE-2020-28493)

* python: Stack-based buffer overflow in PyCArg_repr in _ctypes/callproc.c
(CVE-2021-3177)

* python-babel: Relative path traversal allows attacker to load arbitrary
locale files and execute arbitrary code (CVE-2021-20095)

* python-pygments: Infinite loop in SML lexer may lead to DoS
(CVE-2021-20270)

* python: Web cache poisoning via urllib.parse.parse_qsl and
urllib.parse.parse_qs by using a semicolon in query parameters
(CVE-2021-23336)

* python-pygments: ReDoS via crafted malicious input (CVE-2021-27291)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS
score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE
page(s) listed in the References section.

Additional information

* Changes in the default separator for the Python urllib parsing functions

To mitigate the Web Cache Poisoning CVE-2021-23336 in the Python urllib
library, the default separator for the urllib.parse.parse_qsl and
urllib.parse.parse_qs functions is being changed from both ampersand (&)
and semicolon (;) to only an ampersand.

The change of the default separator is potentially backwards incompatible,
therefore Red Hat provides a way to configure the behavior in Python
packages where the default separator has been changed. In addition, the
affected urllib parsing functions issue a warning if they detect that a
customer’s application has been affected by the change.

For more information, see the Knowledgebase article "Mitigation of Web
Cache Poisoning in the Python urllib library (CVE-2021-23336)" linked from
the References section.
