Description Stefan Behte (RETIRED) gentoo-dev Security 2010-06-25 20:46:31 UTC
CVE-2010-1634 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-1634):
  Multiple integer overflows in audioop.c in the audioop module in
  Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.1, and 3.2 allow context-dependent attackers to
  cause a denial of service (application crash) via a large fragment,
  as demonstrated by a call to audioop.lin2lin with a long string in
  the first argument, leading to a buffer overflow.  NOTE: this
  vulnerability exists because of an incorrect fix for CVE-2008-3143.5.
Comment 1 Stefan Behte (RETIRED) gentoo-dev Security 2010-06-25 21:37:20 UTC
CVE-2010-2089 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-2089):
  The audioop module in Python 2.7 and 3.2 does not verify the
  relationships between size arguments and byte string lengths, which
  allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service
  (memory corruption and application crash) via crafted arguments, as
  demonstrated by a call to audioop.reverse with a one-byte string, a
  different vulnerability than CVE-2010-1634.

This problem is not yet fixed by upstream and also concerns at least Python 2.6.

Fixed in 2.6.5-r3 and 3.1.2-r4. I will request stabilizations in separate bugs after some days of testing.

Arfever: What's the status here?

(In reply to comment #5)

2.6.5-r3 and 3.1.2-r4 still have a Gentoo-specific regression in handling of environmental variables (bug #329705). Do you want stabilization of 2.6.5-r3 and 3.1.2-r4 or wait for stabilization of newer, fixed versions?
Comment 7 Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-08-04 19:48:45 UTC

I'm withdrawing this question.

Please stabilize dev-lang/python-2.6.5-r3 and dev-lang/python-3.1.2-r4.

Comment 14 Joe Jezak (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-08-11 22:32:31 UTC
Marked both ppc stable, marked 2.6.5-r3 stable on ppc64 because it doesn't have a stable keyword for 3.x yet.
Comment 15 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-08-15 23:14:31 UTC
Stable for HPPA.
Comment 16 Dirkjan Ochtman (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-10-27 09:28:22 UTC
Security team, can this be closed?
Comment 17 Brent Baude (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-12-27 15:04:28 UTC
adding ppc64
Comment 18 Brent Baude (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-12-27 18:14:17 UTC
I believe ppc64 is done now.  For the 2.6 branch, I stabilized out of bug 342927 but got the 3.1 branch here.
