Python 3.x through 3.9.1 has a buffer overflow in PyCArg_repr in
_ctypes/callproc.c, which may lead to remote code execution in certain
Python applications that accept floating-point numbers as untrusted input,
as demonstrated by a 1e300 argument to c_double.from_param. This occurs
because sprintf is used unsafely.

Notes

Author Note
mdeslaur on Ubuntu, binaries are compiled with Fortify Source, so exploiting this issue will likely only cause Python to crash, leading to a denial of service.
