The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RHSA-2024:4166 advisory.

Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming language, which includes modules,     classes, exceptions, very high level dynamic data types and dynamic typing. Python supports interfaces to     many system calls and libraries, as well as to various windowing systems.

Security Fix(es):

* python: Path traversal on tempfile.TemporaryDirectory (CVE-2023-6597)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and     other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
