Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-45338)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources in several Parse functions. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-12900)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the BZ2_decompress() function in decompress.c. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted archive, trick the victim into opening it using the affected library, trigger out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

3) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-9287)

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in the venv module when creating a virtual environment. A local user can pass specially crafted strings to the application and execute arbitrary OS commands on the target system.


4) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-11168)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of bracketed hosts (e.g. []) within the urllib.parse.urlsplit() and urlparse() functions allowing hosts that weren't IPv6 or IPvFuture. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted IP address to the application to bypass implemented IP-based security checks or perform SSRF attacks.


5) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-35195)

The vulnerability allows a local user to compromise the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to the session object does not verify requests after making first request with verify=False. A local administrator can bypass authentication.


6) Improper neutralization of argument delimiters in a command (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-21613)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when handling URL field in arguments passed to the git-upload-pack command. A remote attacker can trick the victim into passing a specially crafted URL as a flag to the affected command and manipulate arguments for the git-upload-pack command, which can result in information disclosure.


7) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-21614)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources when handling responses from a malicious Git server. A remote attacker can trick the victim into connecting to a malicious Git server and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
