CVE-2006-1542 – Python 2.4.2 - 'realpath()' Local Stack Overflow
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2006-1542
Stack-based buffer overflow in Python 2.4.2 and earlier, running on Linux 2.6.12.5 under gcc 4.0.3 with libc 2.3.5, allows local users to cause a "stack overflow," and possibly gain privileges, by running a script from a current working directory that has a long name, related to the realpath function. NOTE: this might not be a vulnerability. However, the fact that it appears in a programming language interpreter could mean that some applications are affected, although attack scenarios might be limited because the attacker might already need to cross privilege boundaries to cause an exploitable program to be placed in a directory with a long name; or, depending on the method that Python uses to determine the current working directory, setuid applications might be affected. • https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/1591 http://secunia.com/advisories/31492 http://www.gotfault.net/research/exploit/gexp-python.py http://www.redhat.com/support/errata/RHSA-2008-0629.html https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2006-1542 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=430640 •
CVE-2005-0089
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2005-0089
The SimpleXMLRPCServer library module in Python 2.2, 2.3 before 2.3.5, and 2.4, when used by XML-RPC servers that use the register_instance method to register an object without a _dispatch method, allows remote attackers to read or modify globals of the associated module, and possibly execute arbitrary code, via dotted attributes. • http://marc.info/?l=bugtraq&m=110746469728728&w=2 http://python.org/security/PSF-2005-001/patch-2.2.txt http://secunia.com/advisories/14128 http://securitytracker.com/id?1013083 http://www.debian.org/security/2005/dsa-666 http://www.mandriva.com/security/advisories?name=MDKSA-2005:035 http://www.python.org/security/PSF-2005-001 http://www.redhat.com/support/errata/RHSA-2005-108.html http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/12437 http://www.trustix.org/errata/2005/00 •

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2002-1119
os._execvpe from os.py in Python 2.2.1 and earlier creates temporary files with predictable names, which could allow local users to execute arbitrary code via a symlink attack. • ftp://ftp.caldera.com/pub/security/OpenLinux/CSSA-2002-045.0.txt http://distro.conectiva.com.br/atualizacoes/?id=a&anuncio=000527 http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2002-August/027229.html http://marc.info/?l=bugtraq&m=104333092200589&w=2 http://www.debian.org/security/2002/dsa-159 http://www.iss.net/security_center/static/10009.php http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/security/2002/MDKSA-2002-082.php http://www.redhat.com/support/errata/RHSA-2002-202.html •
