Bug 683890 – <dev-python/urllib3-1.24.2 - adds system certificates to ssl_context

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Security

[Description Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) 2019-04-20 10:10:18 UTC]

"""
A vulnerability has been discovered in the urllib3 Python library.

When verifying HTTPS connections when an SSLContext is passed to
urllib3, system CA certificates will be loaded into the SSLContext
by default in addition to any manually-specified CA certificates.
This causes TLS handshakes that should fail given only the
manually specified certs to succeed based on system CA certs.

This affects urllib3 1.24.1 and below. The fix has been released
in version 1.24.2.

The vulnerability was reported by Christian Heimes.

A CVE ID has been requested, will follow up with it when we have it.

Havoc / on behalf of Tidelift security team & urllib3 team

I just added 1.24.2 to the tree and I'm testing to see if its ready for stabilization.

[Comment 2 Anthony Basile 2019-04-23 19:19:56 UTC]

This is good for rapid stabilization:

I'll take care of amd64.
