ELA-134-1: python2.7 security update


Package: python2.7
Version: 2.7.3-6+deb7u6
Related CVE: CVE-2019-9636 CVE-2019-9740 CVE-2019-9947 CVE-2019-9948 CVE-2019-10160
Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in Python, an interactive high-level object-oriented language, including

CVE-2019-9636

Improper Handling of Unicode Encoding (with an incorrect netloc)
during NFKC normalization resulting in information disclosure
(credentials, cookies, etc. that are cached against a given
hostname). A specially crafted URL could be incorrectly parsed to
locate cookies or authentication data and send that information to
a different host than when parsed correctly.

CVE-2019-9740

An issue was discovered in urllib2 where CRLF injection is possible
if the attacker controls a url parameter, as demonstrated by the
first argument to urllib.request.urlopen with \r\n (specifically in
the query string after a ? character) followed by an HTTP header or
a Redis command.

CVE-2019-9947

An issue was discovered in urllib2 where CRLF injection is possible
if the attacker controls a url parameter, as demonstrated by the
first argument to urllib.request.urlopen with \r\n (specifically in
the path component of a URL that lacks a ? character) followed by an
HTTP header or a Redis command. This is similar to the CVE-2019-9740
query string issue.

CVE-2019-9948

urllib supports the local_file: scheme, which makes it easier for
remote attackers to bypass protection mechanisms that blacklist
file: URIs, as demonstrated by triggering a
urllib.urlopen('local_file:///etc/passwd') call.

CVE-2019-10160

A security regression of CVE-2019-9636 was discovered which still
allows an attacker to exploit CVE-2019-9636 by abusing the user and
password parts of a URL. When an application parses user-supplied
URLs to store cookies, authentication credentials, or other kind of
information, it is possible for an attacker to provide specially
crafted URLs to make the application locate host-related information
(e.g. cookies, authentication data) and send them to a different
host than where it should, unlike if the URLs had been correctly
parsed. The result of an attack may vary based on the application.
For Debian 7 Wheezy, these problems have been fixed in version 2.7.3-6+deb7u6.

We recommend that you upgrade your python2.7 packages.

ELA-135-1: python2.6 security update

DLA 1832-1: libvirt security update




Package : libvirt
Version : 1.2.9-9+deb8u7
CVE IDs : CVE-2019-10161 CVE-2019-10167

Two vulnerabilities were discovered in libvirt, an abstraction API
for different underlying virtualisation mechanisms provided by the
kernel, etc.

* CVE-2019-10161: Prevent an vulnerability where readonly clients
could use the API to specify an arbitrary path which would be
accessed with the permissions of the libvirtd process. An attacker
with access to the libvirtd socket could use this to probe the
existence of arbitrary files, cause a denial of service or
otherwise cause libvirtd to execute arbitrary programs.

* CVE-2019-10167: Prevent an arbitrary code execution vulnerability
via the API where a user-specified binary used to probe the
domain's capabilities. read-only clients could specify an
arbitrary path for this argument, causing libvirtd to execute a
crafted executable with its own privileges.

For Debian 8 "Jessie", these issues have been fixed in libvirt
version 1.2.9-9+deb8u7.

We recommend that you upgrade your libvirt packages.




DLA 1833-1: bzip2 security update




Package : bzip2
Version : 1.0.6-7+deb8u1
CVE ID : CVE-2016-3189 CVE-2019-12900


Two issues in bzip2, a high-quality block-sorting file compressor, have
been fixed. One, CVE-2019-12900, is a out-of-bounds write when using a
crafted compressed file. The other, CVE-2016-3189, is a potential
user-after-free.


For Debian 8 "Jessie", these problems have been fixed in version
1.0.6-7+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your bzip2 packages.

CVE-2019-9947 CVE-2019-9948 CVE-2019-10160
Debian Bug : 921039 921040 924073


Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in Python, an interactive
high-level object-oriented language, including

CVE-2018-14647

Python's elementtree C accelerator failed to initialise Expat's hash
salt during initialization. This could make it easy to conduct
denial of service attacks against Expat by constructing an XML
document that would cause pathological hash collisions in Expat's
internal data structures, consuming large amounts CPU and RAM.

CVE-2019-5010

NULL pointer dereference using a specially crafted X509 certificate.

CVE-2019-9636

Improper Handling of Unicode Encoding (with an incorrect netloc)
