RedHat: RHSA-2022-6766:01 Moderate: rh-python38-python security update
Summary
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 (3.8.14).
Security Fix(es):
* python(mailcap): findmatch() function does not sanitise the second
argument (CVE-2015-20107)
* python: int() type in PyLong_FromString() does not limit amount of digits
converting text to int leading to DoS (CVE-2020-10735)
* python: an open redirection vulnerability in lib/http/server.py may lead
to information disclosure (CVE-2021-28861)
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.
