CVE-2014-4650

The CGIHTTPServer module in Python 2.7.5 and 3.3.4 does not properly handle URLs in which URL encoding is used for path separators, which allows remote attackers to read script source code or conduct directory traversal attacks and execute unintended code via a crafted character sequence, as demonstrated by a %2f separator.

Updated python and python3 packages fix security vulnerabilities:

Python 2 and 3 are susceptible to arbitrary process memory reading by a user or adversary due to a bug in the _json module caused by insufficient bounds checking. The bug is caused by allowing the user to supply a negative value that is used as an array index, causing the scanstring function to access process memory outside of the string it is intended to access (CVE-2014-4616).

The CGIHTTPServer Python module does not properly handle URL-encoded path separators in URLs. This may enable attackers to disclose a CGI script's source code or execute arbitrary scripts in the server's document root (CVE-2014-4650).

This update for python3 to version 3.6.10 fixes the following issues:

• CVE-2017-18207: Fixed a denial of service in Wave_read._read_fmt_chunk() (bsc#1083507).

This update to python 2.7.9 fixes the following issues:

• python-2.7-libffi-aarch64.patch: Fix argument passing in libffi for aarch64

From the version update to 2.7.9:

• contains full backport of ssl module from Python 3.4 (PEP466)

• HTTPS certificate validation enabled by default (PEP476)

• SSLv3 disabled by default (bnc#901715)

• backported ensurepip module (PEP477)

• fixes several missing CVEs from last release: CVE-2013-1752, CVE-2013-1753

• dropped upstreamed patches: python-2.7.6-poplib.patch, smtplib_maxline-2.7.patch, xmlrpc_gzip_27.patch

• dropped patch python-2.7.3-ssl_ca_path.patch because we don't need it with ssl module from Python 3

• libffi was upgraded upstream, seems to contain our changes, so dropping libffi-ppc64le.diff as well

• python-2.7-urllib2-localnet-ssl.patch - properly remove unconditional 'import ssl' from test_urllib2_localnet that caused it to fail without ssl

• skip test_thread in qemu_linux_user mode

From the version update to 2.7.8:

• fixes CVE-2014-4650 directory traversal in CGIHTTPServer
• fixes CVE-2014-7185 (bnc#898572) potential buffer overflow in buffer()

Also the DH parameters were increased to 2048 bit to fix logjam security issue (bsc#935856)

This update for python fixes the following issues:

Updated to version 2.7.17 to unify packages among openSUSE:Factory and SLE versions (bsc#1159035).

It was discovered that multiple Python protocol libraries incorrectly limited certain data when connecting to servers. A malicious ftp, http, imap, nntp, pop or smtp server could use this issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2013-1752)

It was discovered that the Python xmlrpc library did not limit unpacking gzip-compressed HTTP bodies. A malicious server could use this issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2013-1753)

It was discovered that the Python json module incorrectly handled a certain argument. An attacker could possibly use this issue to read arbitrary memory and expose sensitive information. This issue only affected Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2014-4616)

It was discovered that the Python CGIHTTPServer incorrectly handled URL-encoded path separators in URLs. A remote attacker could use this issue to expose sensitive information, or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2014-4650)

It was discovered that Python incorrectly handled sizes and offsets in buffer functions. An attacker could possibly use this issue to read arbitrary memory and obtain sensitive information. This issue only affected Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2014-7185)
