Descriptions

An issue in Python cpython v.3.7 allows an attacker to obtain sensitive information via the _asyncio._swap_current_task component. NOTE: this is disputed by the vendor because (1) neither 3.7 nor any other release is affected (it is a bug in some 3.12 pre-releases); (2) there are no common scenarios in which an adversary can call _asyncio._swap_current_task but does not already have the ability to call arbitrary functions; and (3) there are no common scenarios in which sensitive information, which is not already accessible to an adversary, becomes accessible through this bug.

Un problema en Python cpython v.3.7 permite a un atacante obtener información sensible a través del componente _asyncio._swap_current_task. NOTA: esto es discutido por el vendedor porque (1) ni la versión 3.7 ni ninguna otra está afectada (es un fallo en algunas versiones previas a la 3.12); (2) no hay escenarios comunes en los que un adversario pueda llamar a _asyncio._swap_current_task pero no tenga ya la capacidad de llamar a funciones arbitrarias; y (3) no hay escenarios comunes en los que información sensible, que no esté ya accesible para un adversario, se vuelva accesible a través de este fallo.
