The vulnerability exists due to urllib does not strip the "Cookie" HTTP header during cross-origin HTTP redirects. A remote attacker can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information.
2) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-25399)
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform DoS attack on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due memory leak within the Py_FindObjects() function. A local user can force the application to leak memory and perform denial of service attack.
3) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-29824)
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in Py_FindObjects() function. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and crash the application.
4) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-29159)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and read arbitrary files on the system.
5) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-27043)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass filtration.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when parsing email address with a special character. A remote attacker can bypass a protection mechanism in which application access is granted only after verifying receipt of e-mail to a specific domain.
6) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-44271)
