DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2012-09-15 CVE-2012-3458 Cryptographic Issues vulnerability in Python Beaker
Beaker before 1.6.4, when using PyCrypto to encrypt sessions, uses AES in ECB cipher mode, which might allow remote attackers to obtain portions of sensitive session data via unspecified vectors.
network
python CWE-310
4.3
2012-08-27 CVE-2011-4944 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Python
Python 2.6 through 3.2 creates ~/.pypirc with world-readable permissions before changing them after data has been written, which introduces a race condition that allows local users to obtain a username and password by reading this file.
local
python CWE-264
1.9
2012-07-03 CVE-2012-0876 Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in multiple products
The XML parser (xmlparse.c) in expat before 2.1.0 computes hash values without restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via an XML file with many identifiers with the same value.
4.3
2011-12-31 CVE-2011-4617 Link Following vulnerability in Python Virtualenv
virtualenv.py in virtualenv before 1.5 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a certain file in /tmp/.
local
high complexity
python CWE-59
1.2
2011-05-24 CVE-2011-1521 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in Python
The urllib and urllib2 modules in Python 2.x before 2.7.2 and 3.x before 3.2.1 process Location headers that specify redirection to file: URLs, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via a crafted URL, as demonstrated by the file:///etc/passwd and file:///dev/zero URLs.
network
low complexity
python CWE-399
6.4
2011-05-09 CVE-2011-1015 Information Exposure vulnerability in Python 3.0
The is_cgi method in CGIHTTPServer.py in the CGIHTTPServer module in Python 2.5, 2.6, and 3.0 allows remote attackers to read script source code via an HTTP GET request that lacks a / (slash) character at the beginning of the URI.
network
low complexity
python CWE-200
5.0
2010-10-19 CVE-2010-3493 Race Condition vulnerability in Python 3.1/3.2
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.
network
python CWE-362
4.3
2010-10-19 CVE-2010-3492 Denial-Of-Service vulnerability 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.

5.0
2010-05-27 CVE-2010-2089 Out-of-bounds Write vulnerability in Python
The audioop module in Python 2.7 and 3.2 does not verify the relationships between size arguments and byte string lengths, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via crafted arguments, as demonstrated by a call to audioop.reverse with a one-byte string, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-1634.
network
low complexity
python CWE-787
5.0
2010-05-27 CVE-2010-1450 Classic Buffer Overflow vulnerability in Python 2.5.0
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.

low complexity
python CWE-120
