Background

ReportLab is an Open Source Python library for generating PDFs and graphics.

Description

ReportLab was found to be mishandling XML documents and may evaluate the contents without checking for their safety.

Impact

A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the process or cause a Denial of Service condition.

Workaround

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution

All ReportLab users should upgrade to the latest version:

 # emerge --sync
 # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-python/reportlab-3.5.42"
