- CVE-2024-9287: fix path names quoting to prevent command injection in virtual
environment activation scripts
CVE(s):
CVE-2024-9287
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.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
