EulerOS 2.0 SP12 : python3 (EulerOS-SA-2025-1179)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 215978

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the versions of the python3 packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 A vulnerability has been found in the CPython `venv` module and CLI where path names provided when creating a virtual environment were not quoted properly, allowing the creator to inject commands into virtual environment 'activation' scripts (ie 'source venv/bin/activate'). This means that attacker- controlled virtual environments are able to run commands when the virtual environment is activated.
 Virtual environments which are not created by an attacker or which aren't activated before being used (ie './venv/bin/python') are not affected.(CVE-2024-9287)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS python3 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 python3 packages.
