XWiki Commons allows code execution via improper escaping in wikiId parameter
XWiki Commons are technical libraries common to several other top level XWiki projects. Any user with view rights `WikiManager.DeleteWiki` can execute arbitrary Groovy, Python or Velocity code in XWiki leading to full access to the XWiki installation. The root cause is improper escaping of the `wikiId` url parameter. The problem has been patched on XWiki 13.10.11, 14.4.7, and 14.10.
gRPC TCP server v1.23+ on POSIX: No error handling, DoS via excessive connections
Lack of error handling in the TCP server in Google's gRPC starting version 1.23 on posix-compatible platforms (ex. Linux) allows an attacker to cause a denial of service by initiating a significant number of connections with the server. Note that gRPC C++ Python, and Ruby are affected, but gRPC Java, and Go are NOT affected.
Frappe Framework SQL Injection Vulnerability
Frappe is a low code web framework written in Python and Javascript. A SQL Injection vulnerability has been identified in the Frappe Framework which could allow a malicious actor to access sensitive information. This issue has been addressed in versions 13.46.1 and 14.20.0. Users are advised to upgrade. There's no workaround to fix this without upgrading.
Splunk 4.2.x mappy.py allows remote code execution by authenticated admins via CSRF (SPL-45172)
mappy.py in Splunk Web in Splunk 4.2.x before 4.2.5 does not properly restrict use of the mappy command to access Python classes, which allows remote authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary code by leveraging the sys module in a request to the search application, as demonstrated by a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attack, aka SPL-45172.
Google App Engine Python SDK < 1.5.4 - Sandbox FakeFile Bypass Vulnerability
The FakeFile implementation in the sandbox environment in the Google App Engine Python SDK before 1.5.4 does not properly control the opening of files, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions and create arbitrary files via ALLOWED_MODES and ALLOWED_DIRS changes within the code parameter to _ah/admin/interactive/execute, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-1364.
ModSecurity 2.1.0 and earlier ASCII 0x00 in POST data bypasses rules
Interpretation conflict in ModSecurity (mod_security) 2.1.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass request rules via application/x-www-form-urlencoded POST data that contains an ASCIIZ (0x00) byte, which mod_security treats as a terminator even though it is still processed as normal data by some HTTP parsers including PHP 5.2.0, and possibly parsers in Perl, and Python.
Unhandled Python Exceptions in Saleor GraphQL API
Saleor is a headless, GraphQL commerce platform delivering personalized shopping experiences. Some internal Python exceptions are not handled properly and thus are returned in API as error messages. Some messages might contain sensitive information like infrastructure details in unauthenticated requests. This issue has been patched in versions 3.1.48, 3.7.59, 3.8.0, 3.9.27, 3.10.14 and 3.11.12.
URLValidator in Django 2.2 before 2.2.22, 3.1 before 3.1.10, and 3.2 before 3.2.2 allows newline and tab characters, leading to HTTP header injection
In Django 2.2 before 2.2.22, 3.1 before 3.1.10, and 3.2 before 3.2.2 (with Python 3.9.5+), URLValidator does not prohibit newlines and tabs (unless the URLField form field is used). If an application uses values with newlines in an HTTP response, header injection can occur. Django itself is unaffected because HttpResponse prohibits newlines in HTTP headers.
OpenStack keystonemiddleware < 1.6.0 and python-keystoneclient < 1.4.0: Insecure "insecure" option bypass
The s3_token middleware in OpenStack keystonemiddleware before 1.6.0 and python-keystoneclient before 1.4.0 disables certification verification when the "insecure" option is set in a paste configuration (paste.ini) file regardless of the value, which allows remote attackers to conduct man-in-the-middle attacks via a crafted certificate, a different vulnerability than CVE-2014-7144.
Zamboni's contribution feature lacks certificate hostname verification, enabling SSL spoofing
The contribution feature in Zamboni does not verify that the server hostname matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid certificate, related to use of the Python urllib2 library.
Introducing the "VAITP dataset": a specialized repository of Python vulnerabilities and patches, meticulously compiled for the use of the security research community. As Python's prominence grows, understanding and addressing potential security vulnerabilities become crucial. Crafted by and for the cybersecurity community, this dataset offers a valuable resource for researchers, analysts, and developers to analyze and mitigate the security risks associated with Python. Through the comprehensive exploration of vulnerabilities and corresponding patches, the VAITP dataset fosters a safer and more resilient Python ecosystem, encouraging collaborative advancements in programming security.
