EulerOS 2.0 SP10 : python-jinja2 (EulerOS-SA-2024-1895)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 202413

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the versions of the python-jinja2 package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

Jinja is an extensible templating engine. The `xmlattr` filter in affected versions of Jinja accepts keys containing non-attribute characters. XML/HTML attributes cannot contain spaces, `/`, ``, or `=`, as each would then be interpreted as starting a separate attribute. If an application accepts keys (as opposed to only values) as user input, and renders these in pages that other users see as well, an attacker could use this to inject other attributes and perform XSS. The fix for CVE-2024-22195 only addressed spaces but not other characters. Accepting keys as user input is now explicitly considered an unintended use case of the `xmlattr` filter, and code that does so without otherwise validating the input should be flagged as insecure, regardless of Jinja version. Accepting _values_ as user input continues to be safe. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.1.4.(CVE-2024-34064)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS python-jinja2 security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected python-jinja2 packages.
