{"id":"MGASA-2015-0460","summary":"Updated python-cryptography packages fix security vulnerability","details":"The OpenSSL backend prior to 1.0.2 made extensive use of assertions to\ncheck response codes where our tests could not trigger a failure. However,\nwhen Python is run with -O these asserts are optimized away. If a user ran\nPython with this flag and got an invalid response code this could result\nin undefined behavior or worse (rhbz#1267548).\n\nThe python-cryptography and python-cryptography-vectors packages have been\nupdated to version 1.0.2 and python-pyasn1 has been updated to version\n0.1.8, fixing this issue.\n","modified":"2026-04-16T04:28:35.700247Z","published":"2015-11-27T23:11:20Z","references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2015-0460.html"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17144"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/package-announce/2015-November/171389.html"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/package-announce/2015-November/171390.html"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"python-cryptography","ecosystem":"Mageia:5","purl":"pkg:rpm/mageia/python-cryptography?arch=source&distro=mageia-5"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.0.2-1.mga5"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"section":"core"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2015-0460.json"}},{"package":{"name":"python-cryptography-vectors","ecosystem":"Mageia:5","purl":"pkg:rpm/mageia/python-cryptography-vectors?arch=source&distro=mageia-5"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.0.2-1.mga5"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"section":"core"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2015-0460.json"}},{"package":{"name":"python-pyasn1","ecosystem":"Mageia:5","purl":"pkg:rpm/mageia/python-pyasn1?arch=source&distro=mageia-5"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"0.1.8-1.mga5"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"section":"core"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2015-0460.json"}},{"package":{"name":"python-idna","ecosystem":"Mageia:5","purl":"pkg:rpm/mageia/python-idna?arch=source&distro=mageia-5"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"2.0-1.mga5"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"section":"core"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2015-0460.json"}},{"package":{"name":"python-ipaddress","ecosystem":"Mageia:5","purl":"pkg:rpm/mageia/python-ipaddress?arch=source&distro=mageia-5"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.0.15-1.mga5"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"section":"core"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2015-0460.json"}},{"package":{"name":"python-cffi","ecosystem":"Mageia:5","purl":"pkg:rpm/mageia/python-cffi?arch=source&distro=mageia-5"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.1.2-1.mga5"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"section":"core"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2015-0460.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","credits":[{"name":"Mageia","contact":["https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Packages_Security_Team"],"type":"COORDINATOR"}]}
