"The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as
referenced in the RHSA-2024:6961 advisory.
Python 3.12 is an accessible, high-level, dynamically typed, interpreted programming language, designed
with an emphasis on code readability. It includes an extensive standard library, and has a vast ecosystem
of third-party libraries. The python3.12 package provides the python3.12 executable: the reference
interpreter for the Python language, version 3. The majority of its standard library is provided in the
python3.12-libs package, which should be installed automatically along with python3.12. The remaining
parts of the Python standard library are broken out into the python3.12-tkinter and python3.12-test
packages, which may need to be installed separately. Documentation for Python is provided in the
python3.12-docs package. Packages containing additional libraries for Python are generally named with the
python3.12- prefix. For the unversioned python executable, see manual page unversioned-python.
Security Fix(es):
* python: incorrect IPv4 and IPv6 private ranges (CVE-2024-4032)
* cpython: python: email module doesn't properly quotes newlines in email headers, allowing header
injection (CVE-2024-6923)
* python: cpython: Iterating over a malicious ZIP file may lead to Denial of Service (CVE-2024-8088)
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 these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
