EulerOS 2.0 SP11 : python-setuptools (EulerOS-SA-2024-2566)

high Nessus Plugin ID 208366

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

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

 A vulnerability in the package_index module of pypa/setuptools versions up to 69.1.1 allows for remote code execution via its download functions. These functions, which are used to download packages from URLs provided by users or retrieved from package index servers, are susceptible to code injection. If these functions are exposed to user-controlled inputs, such as package URLs, they can execute arbitrary commands on the system. The issue is fixed in version 70.0.(CVE-2024-6345)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS python-setuptools 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-setuptools packages.
