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.
The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version:
rh-python38-python (3.8.11). (BZ#1969523)
Security Fix(es):
* python-cryptography: Bleichenbacher timing oracle attack against RSA
decryption (CVE-2020-25659)
* python: Unsafe use of eval() on data retrieved via HTTP in the test suite
(CVE-2020-27619)
* python-lxml: mXSS due to the use of improper parser (CVE-2020-27783)
* python-jinja2: ReDoS vulnerability due to the sub-pattern
(CVE-2020-28493)
* python-cryptography: Large inputs for symmetric encryption can trigger
integer overflow leading to buffer overflow (CVE-2020-36242)
* python: Stack-based buffer overflow in PyCArg_repr in _ctypes/callproc.c
(CVE-2021-3177)
* python: Information disclosure via pydoc (CVE-2021-3426)
* python-babel: Relative path traversal allows attacker to load arbitrary
locale files and execute arbitrary code (CVE-2021-20095)
* 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-lxml: Missing input sanitization for formaction HTML5 attributes
may lead to XSS (CVE-2021-28957)
* python-ipaddress: Improper input validation of octal strings
(CVE-2021-29921)
* python-urllib3: ReDoS in the parsing of authority part of URL
(CVE-2021-33503)
* python-pip: Incorrect handling of unicode separators in git references
(CVE-2021-3572)
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.
* The Python "ipaddress" module no longer allows leading zeros in IPv4
addresses
To mitigate CVE-2021-29921, the Python "ipaddress" module now rejects IPv4
addresses with leading zeros with an "AddressValueError: Leading zeros are
not permitted" error.
Customers who rely on the previous behavior can pre-process their IPv4
address inputs to strip the leading zeros off. For details, see the Red Hat
Software Collections 3.7 Release Notes.
