Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.

1) Buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU61603

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 3.2 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-33430

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the PyArray_NewFromDescr_int() function of ctors.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the library and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Mitigation

Update the affected package python2-numpy to the latest version.

3) Buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU61601

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 2.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-41496

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the array_from_pyobj() function in fortranobject.c. A remote user can pass an array with negative values to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Mitigation

Update the affected package python2-numpy to the latest version.
