Summary

Multiple buffer overflows in Python 2.5.2 and earlier on 32bit platforms allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or have unspecified other impact via a long string that leads to incorrect memory allocation during Unicode string processing, related to the unicode_resize function and the PyMem_RESIZE macro.

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Buffer Overflow via Environment Variables
    This attack pattern involves causing a buffer overflow through manipulation of environment variables. Once the attacker finds that they can modify an environment variable, they may try to overflow associated buffers. This attack leverages implicit trust often placed in environment variables.
  • Overflow Buffers
    Buffer Overflow attacks target improper or missing bounds checking on buffer operations, typically triggered by input injected by an attacker. As a consequence, an attacker is able to write past the boundaries of allocated buffer regions in memory, causing a program crash or potentially redirection of execution as per the attackers' choice.
  • Client-side Injection-induced Buffer Overflow
    This type of attack exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability in targeted client software through injection of malicious content from a custom-built hostile service.
  • Filter Failure through Buffer Overflow
    In this attack, the idea is to cause an active filter to fail by causing an oversized transaction. An attacker may try to feed overly long input strings to the program in an attempt to overwhelm the filter (by causing a buffer overflow) and hoping that the filter does not fail securely (i.e. the user input is let into the system unfiltered).
  • MIME Conversion
    An attacker exploits a weakness in the MIME conversion routine to cause a buffer overflow and gain control over the mail server machine. The MIME system is designed to allow various different information formats to be interpreted and sent via e-mail. Attack points exist when data are converted to MIME compatible format and back.

    This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the
    Red Hat Security Response Team.
    
    Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming
    language.
    
    When the assert() system call was disabled, an input sanitization flaw
    was revealed in the Python string object implementation that led to a
    buffer overflow. The missing check for negative size values meant the
    Python memory allocator could allocate less memory than expected. This
    could result in arbitrary code execution with the Python interpreter's
    privileges. (CVE-2008-1887)
    
    Multiple buffer and integer overflow flaws were found in the Python
    Unicode string processing and in the Python Unicode and string object
    implementations. An attacker could use these flaws to cause a denial
    of service (Python application crash). (CVE-2008-3142, CVE-2008-5031)
    
    Multiple integer overflow flaws were found in the Python imageop
    module. If a Python application used the imageop module to process
    untrusted images, it could cause the application to disclose sensitive
    information, crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the
    Python interpreter's privileges. (CVE-2007-4965, CVE-2008-4864)
    
    Multiple integer underflow and overflow flaws were found in the Python
    snprintf() wrapper implementation. An attacker could use these flaws
    to cause a denial of service (memory corruption). (CVE-2008-3144)
    
    Multiple integer overflow flaws were found in various Python modules.
    An attacker could use these flaws to cause a denial of service (Python
    application crash). (CVE-2008-2315, CVE-2008-3143)
    
    An integer signedness error, leading to a buffer overflow, was found
    in the Python zlib extension module. If a Python application requested
    the negative byte count be flushed for a decompression stream, it
    could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute
    arbitrary code with the Python interpreter's privileges.
    (CVE-2008-1721)
    
    A flaw was discovered in the strxfrm() function of the Python locale
    module. Strings generated by this function were not properly
    NULL-terminated, which could possibly cause disclosure of data stored
    in the memory of a Python application using this function.
    (CVE-2007-2052)
    
    Red Hat would like to thank David Remahl of the Apple Product Security
    team for responsibly reporting the CVE-2008-2315 issue.
    
    All Python users should upgrade to these updated packages, which
    contain backported patches to correct these issues."

    This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the
    Red Hat Security Response Team.
    
    Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming
    language.
    
    When the assert() system call was disabled, an input sanitization flaw
    was revealed in the Python string object implementation that led to a
    buffer overflow. The missing check for negative size values meant the
    Python memory allocator could allocate less memory than expected. This
    could result in arbitrary code execution with the Python interpreter's
    privileges. (CVE-2008-1887)
    
    Multiple buffer and integer overflow flaws were found in the Python
    Unicode string processing and in the Python Unicode and string object
    implementations. An attacker could use these flaws to cause a denial
    of service (Python application crash). (CVE-2008-3142, CVE-2008-5031)
    
    Multiple integer overflow flaws were found in the Python imageop
    module. If a Python application used the imageop module to process
    untrusted images, it could cause the application to disclose sensitive
    information, crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the
    Python interpreter's privileges. (CVE-2007-4965, CVE-2008-4864)
    
    Multiple integer underflow and overflow flaws were found in the Python
    snprintf() wrapper implementation. An attacker could use these flaws
    to cause a denial of service (memory corruption). (CVE-2008-3144)
    
    Multiple integer overflow flaws were found in various Python modules.
    An attacker could use these flaws to cause a denial of service (Python
    application crash). (CVE-2008-2315, CVE-2008-3143)
    
    An integer signedness error, leading to a buffer overflow, was found
    in the Python zlib extension module. If a Python application requested
    the negative byte count be flushed for a decompression stream, it
    could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute
    arbitrary code with the Python interpreter's privileges.
    (CVE-2008-1721)
    
    A flaw was discovered in the strxfrm() function of the Python locale
    module. Strings generated by this function were not properly
    NULL-terminated, which could possibly cause disclosure of data stored
    in the memory of a Python application using this function.
    (CVE-2007-2052)
    
    Red Hat would like to thank David Remahl of the Apple Product Security
    team for responsibly reporting the CVE-2008-2315 issue.
    
    All Python users should upgrade to these updated packages, which
    contain backported patches to correct these issues."

    Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming
    language.
    
    When the assert() system call was disabled, an input sanitization flaw
    was revealed in the Python string object implementation that led to a
    buffer overflow. The missing check for negative size values meant the
    Python memory allocator could allocate less memory than expected. This
    could result in arbitrary code execution with the Python interpreter's
    privileges. (CVE-2008-1887)
    
    Multiple buffer and integer overflow flaws were found in the Python
    Unicode string processing and in the Python Unicode and string object
    implementations. An attacker could use these flaws to cause a denial
    of service (Python application crash). (CVE-2008-3142, CVE-2008-5031)
    
    Multiple integer overflow flaws were found in the Python imageop
    module. If a Python application used the imageop module to process
    untrusted images, it could cause the application to disclose sensitive
    information, crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the
    Python interpreter's privileges. (CVE-2007-4965, CVE-2008-4864)
    
    Multiple integer underflow and overflow flaws were found in the Python
    snprintf() wrapper implementation. An attacker could use these flaws
    to cause a denial of service (memory corruption). (CVE-2008-3144)
    
    Multiple integer overflow flaws were found in various Python modules.
    An attacker could use these flaws to cause a denial of service (Python
    application crash). (CVE-2008-2315, CVE-2008-3143)
    
    An integer signedness error, leading to a buffer overflow, was found
    in the Python zlib extension module. If a Python application requested
    the negative byte count be flushed for a decompression stream, it
    could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute
    arbitrary code with the Python interpreter's privileges.
    (CVE-2008-1721)
    
    A flaw was discovered in the strxfrm() function of the Python locale
    module. Strings generated by this function were not properly
    NULL-terminated, which could possibly cause disclosure of data stored
    in the memory of a Python application using this function.
    (CVE-2007-2052)
    
    Red Hat would like to thank David Remahl of the Apple Product Security
    team for responsibly reporting the CVE-2008-2315 issue.

    descriptionThe remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200807-16 (Python: Multiple vulnerabilities) Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in Python: David Remahl of Apple Product Security reported several integer overflows in core modules such as stringobject, unicodeobject, bufferobject, longobject, tupleobject, stropmodule, gcmodule, mmapmodule (CVE-2008-2315). David Remahl of Apple Product Security also reported an integer overflow in the hashlib module, leading to unreliable cryptographic digest results (CVE-2008-2316). Justin Ferguson reported multiple buffer overflows in unicode string processing that only affect 32bit systems (CVE-2008-3142). The Google Security Team reported multiple integer overflows (CVE-2008-3143). Justin Ferguson reported multiple integer underflows and overflows in the PyOS_vsnprintf() function, and an off-by-one error when passing zero-length strings, leading to memory corruption (CVE-2008-3144). Impact : A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities in Python applications or daemons that pass user-controlled input to vulnerable functions. Exploitation might lead to the execution of arbitrary code or a Denial of Service. Vulnerabilities within the hashlib might lead to weakened cryptographic protection of data integrity or authenticity. Workaround : There is no known workaround at this time.

        processing that only affect 32bit systems (CVE-2008-3142).
        The Google Security Team reported multiple integer overflows
        (CVE-2008-3143).
        Justin Ferguson reported multiple integer underflows and overflows in
        the PyOS_vsnprintf() function, and an off-by-one error when passing
        zero-length strings, leading to memory corruption (CVE-2008-3144).
      
    Impact :
    
        A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities in Python
        applications or daemons that pass user-controlled input to vulnerable
        functions. Exploitation might lead to the execution of arbitrary code
        or a Denial of Service. Vulnerabilities within the hashlib might lead
        to weakened cryptographic protection of data integrity or authenticity.

    descriptionMultiple integer overflows in the imageop module in Python prior to 2.5.3 allowed context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted images that trigger heap-based buffer overflows (CVE-2008-1679). This was due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2007-4965. David Remahl of Apple Product Security reported several integer overflows in a number of core modules (CVE-2008-2315). He also reported an integer overflow in the hashlib module on Python 2.5 that lead to unreliable cryptographic digest results (CVE-2008-2316). Justin Ferguson reported multiple buffer overflows in unicode string processing that affected 32bit systems (CVE-2008-3142). Multiple integer overflows were reported by the Google Security Team that had been fixed in Python 2.5.2 (CVE-2008-3143). Justin Ferguson reported a number of integer overflows and underflows in the PyOS_vsnprintf() function, as well as an off-by-one error when passing zero-length strings, that led to memory corruption (CVE-2008-3144). The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues. As well, Python packages on Mandriva Linux 2007.1 and 2008.0 have been updated to version 2.5.2. Due to slight packaging changes on Mandriva Linux 2007.1, a new package is available (tkinter-apps) that contains binary files (such as /usr/bin/idle) that were previously in the tkinter package.

When the assert() system call was disabled, an input sanitization flaw was revealed in the Python string object implementation that led to a buffer overflow. The missing check for negative size values meant the Python memory allocator could allocate less memory than expected. This could result in arbitrary code execution with the Python interpreter

    descriptionSecunia reports : Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Python, where some have unknown impact and others can potentially be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or to compromise a vulnerable system. Various integer overflow errors exist in core modules e.g. stringobject, unicodeobject, bufferobject, longobject, tupleobject, stropmodule, gcmodule, mmapmodule. An integer overflow in the hashlib module can lead to an unreliable cryptographic digest results. Integer overflow errors in the processing of unicode strings can be exploited to cause buffer overflows on 32-bit systems. An integer overflow exists in the PyOS_vsnprintf() function on architectures that do not have a
