Summary

The updatePosition function in lib/xmltok_impl.c in libexpat in Expat 2.0.1, as used in Python, PyXML, w3c-libwww, and other software, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via an XML document with crafted UTF-8 sequences that trigger a buffer over-read, a different vulnerability than CVE-2009-2625.

    descriptionUSN-890-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Expat. This update provides the corresponding updates for PyXML. Jukka Taimisto, Tero Rontti and Rauli Kaksonen discovered that Expat did not properly process malformed XML. If a user or application linked against Expat were tricked into opening a crafted XML file, an attacker could cause a denial of service via application crash. (CVE-2009-2625, CVE-2009-3720) It was discovered that Expat did not properly process malformed UTF-8 sequences. If a user or application linked against Expat were tricked into opening a crafted XML file, an attacker could cause a denial of service via application crash. (CVE-2009-3560). Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

    moderate security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS)
    base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for
    each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.
    
    Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming
    language.
    
    A flaw was found in the Python urllib and urllib2 libraries where they
    would not differentiate between different target URLs when handling
    automatic redirects. This caused Python applications using these
    modules to follow any new URL that they understood, including the
    'file://' URL type. This could allow a remote server to force a local
    Python application to read a local file instead of the remote one,
    possibly exposing local files that were not meant to be exposed.
    (CVE-2011-1521)
    
    Multiple flaws were found in the Python audioop module. Supplying
    certain inputs could cause the audioop module to crash or, possibly,
    execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2010-1634, CVE-2010-2089)
    
    A race condition was found in the way the Python smtpd module handled
    new connections. A remote user could use this flaw to cause a Python
    script using the smtpd module to terminate. (CVE-2010-3493)
    
    An information disclosure flaw was found in the way the Python
    CGIHTTPServer module processed certain HTTP GET requests. A remote
    attacker could use a specially crafted request to obtain the CGI
    script's source code. (CVE-2011-1015)
    
    A buffer over-read flaw was found in the way the Python Expat parser
    handled malformed UTF-8 sequences when processing XML files. A
    specially crafted XML file could cause Python applications using the
    Python Expat parser to crash while parsing the file. (CVE-2009-3720)
    
    This update makes Python use the system Expat library rather than its
    own internal copy; therefore, users must have the version of Expat
    shipped with RHSA-2009:1625 installed, or a later version, to resolve
    the CVE-2009-3720 issue.
    
    All Python users should upgrade to these updated packages, which
    contain backported patches to correct these issues."

A remote attacker can exploit this, via an XML document having malformed UTF-8 sequences, to cause a buffer over-read, thus crashing the application. (CVE-2009-3720) - An integer overflow condition exists in the BZ2_decompress() function in file decompress.c in the bzip2 and libbzip2 library. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted compressed file, to cause a denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2010-0405) - A denial of service vulnerability exists in the audioop module due to multiple integer overflows conditions in file audioop.c. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a large fragment or argument, to cause a buffer overflow, resulting in an application crash. (CVE-2010-1634) - A denial of service vulnerability exists in the audioop module due to a failure to verify the relationships between size arguments and byte string length. A remote attacker can exploit this, via crafted arguments, to cause memory corruption, resulting in an application crash. (CVE-2010-2089) - A flaw exists in the urllib and urllib2 modules due to processing Location headers that specify redirection to a file. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted URL, to gain sensitive information or cause a denial of service. (CVE-2011-1521) - A privilege escalation vulnerability exists due to an incorrect ACL being used for the VMware Tools folder. An attacker on an adjacent network with access to a guest operating system can exploit this to gain elevated privileges on the guest operating system. (CVE-2012-1518)

This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. Expat is a C library written by James Clark for parsing XML documents. Two buffer over-read flaws were found in the way Expat handled malformed UTF-8 sequences when processing XML files. A specially crafted XML file could cause applications using Expat to crash while parsing the file. (CVE-2009-3560, CVE-2009-3720) All expat users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. After installing the updated packages, applications using the Expat library must be restarted for the update to take effect.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

statementRed Hat is aware of this issue and is tracking it via the following bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=CVE-2009-3720 The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this issue as having moderate security impact in Python, a future update may address this flaw. If a system has PyXML installed, Python will use PyXML for expat-related functions and is then not vulnerable to the issue.
