    Package        : python-pymysql     Version        : 0.9.3-1+deb10u1     CVE ID         : CVE-2024-36039     Debian Bug     : 1071628

    It was discovered that there was a potential SQL injection attack     in python-pymysql, a MySQL client library for Python. This was     exploitable when python-pymysql was used with untrusted JSON input     as keys were not escaped by the escape_dict routine.

    For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version     0.9.3-1+deb10u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your python-pymysql packages.

    For the detailed security status of python-pymysql please refer to     its security tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/python-pymysql
