Summary

The asyncore module in Python before 3.2 does not properly handle unsuccessful calls to the accept function, and does not have accompanying documentation describing how daemon applications should handle unsuccessful calls to the accept function, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct denial of service attacks that terminate these applications via network connections.

    descriptionMultiple vulnerabilities was discovered and corrected in python : The asyncore module in Python before 3.2 does not properly handle unsuccessful calls to the accept function, and does not have accompanying documentation describing how daemon applications should handle unsuccessful calls to the accept function, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct denial of service attacks that terminate these applications via network connections (CVE-2010-3492). Multiple race conditions in smtpd.py in the smtpd module in Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.1, and 3.2 alpha allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon outage) by establishing and then immediately closing a TCP connection, leading to the accept function having an unexpected return value of None, an unexpected value of None for the address, or an ECONNABORTED, EAGAIN, or EWOULDBLOCK error, or the getpeername function having an ENOTCONN error, a related issue to CVE-2010-3492 (CVE-2010-3493). The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.

    descriptionMultiple vulnerabilities was discovered and corrected in python : Buffer underflow in the rgbimg module in Python 2.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a large ZSIZE value in a black-and-white (aka B/W) RGB image that triggers an invalid pointer dereference (CVE-2009-4134). Integer overflow in rgbimgmodule.c in the rgbimg module in Python 2.5 allows remote attackers to have an unspecified impact via a large image that triggers a buffer overflow. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2008-3143.12 (CVE-2010-1449). Multiple buffer overflows in the RLE decoder in the rgbimg module in Python 2.5 allow remote attackers to have an unspecified impact via an image file containing crafted data that triggers improper processing within the (1) longimagedata or (2) expandrow function (CVE-2010-1450). The asyncore module in Python before 3.2 does not properly handle unsuccessful calls to the accept function, and does not have accompanying documentation describing how daemon applications should handle unsuccessful calls to the accept function, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct denial of service attacks that terminate these applications via network connections (CVE-2010-3492). Multiple race conditions in smtpd.py in the smtpd module in Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.1, and 3.2 alpha allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon outage) by establishing and then immediately closing a TCP connection, leading to the accept function having an unexpected return value of None, an unexpected value of None for the address, or an ECONNABORTED, EAGAIN, or EWOULDBLOCK error, or the getpeername function having an ENOTCONN error, a related issue to CVE-2010-3492 (CVE-2010-3493). Packages for 2009.0 are provided as of the Extended Maintenance Program. Please visit this link to learn more: http://store.mandriva.com/product_info.php?cPath=149&products_id=4 90 The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.

    Python 2.5 allow remote attackers to have an unspecified impact via an
    image file containing crafted data that triggers improper processing
    within the (1) longimagedata or (2) expandrow function
    (CVE-2010-1450).
    
    The asyncore module in Python before 3.2 does not properly handle
    unsuccessful calls to the accept function, and does not have
    accompanying documentation describing how daemon applications should
    handle unsuccessful calls to the accept function, which makes it
    easier for remote attackers to conduct denial of service attacks that
    terminate these applications via network connections (CVE-2010-3492).
    
    Multiple race conditions in smtpd.py in the smtpd module in Python
    2.6, 2.7, 3.1, and 3.2 alpha allow remote attackers to cause a denial
    of service (daemon outage) by establishing and then immediately
    closing a TCP connection, leading to the accept function having an
    unexpected return value of None, an unexpected value of None for the
    address, or an ECONNABORTED, EAGAIN, or EWOULDBLOCK error, or the
    getpeername function having an ENOTCONN error, a related issue to
    CVE-2010-3492 (CVE-2010-3493).
