Synopsis ========
An untrusted search path vulnerability in python-updater might result in the execution of arbitrary code.
Background ==========
python-updater is a script used to remerge python packages when changing Python version.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 app-admin/python-updater < 0.7-r1 >= 0.7-r1
Description ===========
Robert Buchholz of the Gentoo Security Team reported that python-updater includes the current working directory and subdirectories in the Python module search path (sys.path) before calling "import".
Impact ======
A local attacker could entice the root user to run "python-updater" from a directory containing a specially crafted Python module, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with root privileges.
Workaround ==========
Do not run "python-updater" from untrusted working directories.
Resolution ==========
All python-updater users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-admin/python-updater-0.7-r1"
Availability ============
This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website:
