A flaw was found in the Python pip package. The pip could allow a local authenticated attacker to bypass security restrictions due to a flaw when installing a package from a Mercurial VCS URL. By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker can inject arbitrary configuration options to the “hg clone” call to modify how and which repository is installed.
Mitigation
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
