Details

Dwayne Litzenberger discovered that Python Keyring’s CryptedFileKeyring
file format used weak cryptography. A local attacker may use this issue to
brute-force CryptedFileKeyring keyring files. This issue only affected
Ubuntu 11.10 and Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. (CVE-2012-4571)

It was discovered that Python Keyring created keyring files with insecure
permissions. A local attacker could use this issue to access keyring files
belonging to other users.
