This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.

1) Incorrect Regular Expression

EUVDB-ID: #VU96745

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 6.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2024-6232

CWE-ID: CWE-185 - Incorrect Regular Expression

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of .tar archives when processing it with regular expressions. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform regular expression denial of service (ReDos) attack.

Mitigation

Update the affected package python3 to the latest version.

2) Resource exhaustion

EUVDB-ID: #VU96945

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 6.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2024-7592

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources within the 'http.cookies' standard library module when parsing cookies that contained backslashes for quoted characters in the cookie value. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Mitigation

Update the affected package python3 to the latest version.
