GuardDog vulnerable to arbitrary file write when scanning a specially-crafted PyPI package

Impact Running GuardDog against a specially-crafted package can allow an attacker to write an arbitrary file on the machine where GuardDog is executed. This is due to a path traversal vulnerability when extracting the .tar.gz file of the package being scanned, which exists by design in the...

W4SP Stealer Constantly Targeting Python Developers in Ongoing Supply Chain Attack

An ongoing supply chain attack has been leveraging malicious Python packages to distribute malware called W4SP Stealer, with over hundreds of victims ensnared to date. "The threat actor is still active and is releasing more malicious packages," Checkmarx researcher Jossef Harush said in a technic...

CVE-2022-42964

CVE-2022-42964 affects the Python package pymatgen (PyPI). The vulnerability arises in the function/flow related to parsing Gaussian inputs, specifically GaussianInput.from_string, where crafted input can trigger an exponential ReDoS in the regular expression handling. This condition can lead to ...

CVE-2022-42965

CVE-2022-42965 affects the Python Snowflake connector (snowflake-connector-python). The vulnerability is an exponential ReDoS in the undocumented get_file_transfer_type method, allowing a network attacker to trigger a denial of service by supplying crafted input. Underlying cause: a vulnerable re...
