BIT-PYTHON-MIN-2026-6100 Use-after-free in lzma.LZMADecompressor, bz2.BZ2Decompressor, and gzip.GzipFile after re-use under memory pressure

Use-after-free UAF was possible in the lzma.LZMADecompressor, bz2.BZ2Decompressor, and gzip.GzipFile when a memory allocation fails with a MemoryError and the decompression instance is re-used. This scenario can be triggered if the process is under memory pressure. The fix cleans up the dangling...

CVE-2026-6100: clear dangling nextin pointer on MemoryError in bz2/lzma decompressors to avoid use-after-free on instance reuse...

The vulnerabilities of the functions lzma.LZMADecompressor(), bz2.BZ2Decompressor(), and gzip.GzipFile() in the Python programming language (CPython) allow a malicious actor to trigger a service denial.

The vulnerability of the bytes.decode function in the CPython interpreter relates to the use of memory after it is freed. Exploiting this vulnerability could allow a remote attacker to cause a service failure...

OESA-2026-2115 python3 security update

Python combines remarkable power with very clear syntax. It has modules, classes, exceptions, very high level dynamic data types, and dynamic typing. There are interfaces to many system calls and libraries, as well as to various windowing systems. New built-in modules are easily written in C or C...

FreeBSD : Python -- use-after-free vulnerability in decompressors under memory pressure (b8e9f33c-375d-11f1-a119-e36228bfe7d4)

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the b8e9f33c-375d-11f1-a119-e36228bfe7d4 advisory. Seth Larson reports: There is a CRITICAL severity vulnerability affecting CPython. Use-after-free UAF w...
