Package : astropy
Version : 3.1.2-2+deb10u1
CVE ID : CVE-2023-41334

It was discovered that there was a potential remote code execution
vulnerability in Astropy, a suite of tools, utilities and Python
utilities for astrophysics.

Improper input validation in the TranformGraph().to_dot_graph
function could have led to arbitary command execution as values were
passed as the first argument to subprocess.Popen. Although an error
will be raised, the command or script would still be executed
successfully.

For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version
3.1.2-2+deb10u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your astropy packages.
