cpython: Stack overflow parsing XML with deeply nested DTD content models

A stack overflow flaw has been discovered in the python pyexpat module. When an Expat parser with a registered ElementDeclHandler parses an inline document type definition containing a deeply nested content model a C stack overflow occurs. This will result in a program crash...

python: cpython: Python: Arbitrary code execution via command injection in webbrowser.open() API

A flaw was found in the Python webbrowser.open API. If a specially crafted URL containing "%action" is processed, an attacker could bypass a previous mitigation for CVE-2026-4519. This bypass allows for command injection into the underlying shell, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution...

python: Quadratic complexity in os.path.expandvars() with user-controlled template

A vulnerability in Python’s os.path.expandvars function that can cause performance degradation. When processing specially crafted, user-controlled input with nested environment variable patterns, the function exhibits quadratic time complexity, potentially leading to excessive CPU usage and denia...

cpython: Header injection via newlines in data URL mediatype in Python

Missing newline filtering has been discovered in Python. User-controlled data URLs parsed by urllib.request.DataHandler allow injecting headers through newlines in the data URL mediatype...

cpython: POP3 command injection in user-controlled commands

A flaw was found in the poplib module in the Python standard library. The poplib module does not reject control characters, such as newlines, in user-controlled input passed to POP3 commands. This issue allows an attacker to inject additional commands to be executed in the POP3 server...

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...

cpython: python: cpython: Quadratic algorithm in xml.dom.minidom leads to denial of service

A flaw was found in cpython. This vulnerability allows impacted availability via a quadratic algorithm in xml.dom.minidom methods, such as appendChild, when building excessively nested documents due to a dependency on clearidcache...

An update for Red Hat Hardened Images RPMs is now available. This update includes the following RPMs: python3.12: python3.12-3.12.13-3.hum1 aarch64, x8664 python3.12-debug-3.12.13-3.hum1 aarch64, x8664 python3.12-devel-3.12.13-3.hum1 aarch64, x8664 python3.12-idle-3.12.13-3.hum1 aarch64, x8664...

cpython: wsgiref.headers.Headers allows header newline injection in Python

Missing newline filtering has been discovered in Python. User-controlled header names and values containing newlines can allow injecting HTTP headers...

cpython: Out-of-memory when loading Plist

A flaw was found in the plistlib module in the Python standard library. The amount of data to read from a Plist file is specified in the file itself. This issue allows a specially crafted Plist file to cause an application to allocate a large amount of memory, potentially resulting in allocations...

cpython: Incomplete control character validation in http.cookies

A control character validation flaw has been discovered in the Python http.cookie module. The Morsel.update, |= operator, and unpickling paths were not patched to resolve CVE-2026-0672, allowing control characters to bypass input validation. Additionally, BaseCookie.jsoutput lacked the output...

cpython: Missing character filtering in Python

Missing character filtering has been discovered in Python. When folding a long comment in an email header containing exclusively unfoldable characters, the parenthesis would not be preserved. This could be used for injecting headers into email messages where addresses are user-controlled and not...

cpython: IMAP command injection in user-controlled commands

A flaw was found in the imaplib module in the Python standard library. The imaplib module does not reject control characters, such as newlines, in user-controlled input passed to IMAP commands. This issue allows an attacker to inject additional commands to be executed in the IMAP server...
