EulerOS Virtualization 2.5.3 : python (EulerOS-SA-2019-1359)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 124737

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS Virtualization host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the version of the python packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

 - urllib in Python 2.x through 2.7.16 supports the local_file: scheme, which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass protection mechanisms that blacklist file: URIs, as demonstrated by triggering a urllib.urlopen('local_file:///etc/passwd') call.(CVE-2019-9948)

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

Solution

Update the affected python package.
