CLSA-2026-1789900651 Fix CVE(s): CVE-2026-11972, CVE-2026-9669

SECURITY UPDATE: CPU denial-of-service in tarfile streaming mode via a crafted archive that declares more blocks than it contains - debian/patches/CVE-2026-11972.patch: in Lib/tarfile.py, break out of the block loop in Stream.seek once read returns no data, so an archive opened in streaming mode...

CLSA-2026-1789636518 Fix CVE(s): CVE-2026-11972, CVE-2026-9669

SECURITY UPDATE: quadratic parse time in the tarfile module when a streaming archive declares an offset past the end of the stream - debian/patches/CVE-2026-11972.patch: stop the forward-seek loop in Stream.seek as soon as read returns no data, in Lib/tarfile.py, so a crafted mode="r|" archive ca...

CLSA-2026-1789575335 Fix CVE(s): CVE-2026-9669

SECURITY UPDATE: out-of-bounds write on bz2 decompressor and BZ2File reuse after a decompression error - debian/patches/CVE-2026-9669.patch: make a libbz2 decompression error sticky on the decompressor object and on the BZ2File read paths in Modules/bz2module.c, so a reused object can no longer...

Amazon Linux 2023 : python3.12, python3.12-devel, python3.12-idle (ALAS2023-2026-1954)

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2026-1954 advisory. When using the configparser module to write configuration filescontaining multi-line text values with carriage return characters \r theresulting file could be injected with unexpected keys and...

Important: python3.11

Issue Overview: When using the "configparser" module to write configuration files containing multi-line text values with carriage return characters \r the resulting file could be injected with unexpected keys and values if the attacker controls the written value. CVE-2026-0864 When using the...

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...

OESA-2026-2694 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...

python: Python: Arbitrary code execution or information disclosure via use-after-free in decompression modules

A flaw was found in Python's decompression modules, including lzma.LZMADecompressor, bz2.BZ2Decompressor, and gzip.GzipFile. This vulnerability, a use-after-free, can occur if a program attempts to re-use a decompression object after a memory allocation error, especially when the system is...

CVE-2026-9669

A flaw was found in Python's bz2.BZ2Decompressor component. An attacker could provide specially crafted input that, when processed by an application reusing a decompressor object after an error, could lead to out-of-bounds writes in memory. This memory corruption could cause the application to...

Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-9669

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available. - bz2.BZ2Decompressor objects could be reused after a decompression error. If an application caught the resulting OSError and retried with the same decompressor,...

CVE-2026-9669

bz2.BZ2Decompressor objects could be reused after a decompression error. If an application caught the resulting OSError and retried with the same decompressor, crafted input could cause the decompressor to resume from an invalid internal state and perform out-of-bounds writes to a stack buffer...
