Synopsis ========
Python 2.2 has a vulnerability in DNS handling when IPV6 is disabled and a malformed IPV6 address is encountered by getaddrinfo().
Background ==========
Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented, cross-platform programming language.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 dev-lang/python < 2.2.2 >= 2.2.2 < 2.2
Description ===========
If IPV6 is disabled in Python 2.2, getaddrinfo() is not able to handle IPV6 DNS requests properly and a buffer overflow occurs.
Impact ======
An attacker can execute arbitrary code as the user running python.
Workaround ==========
Users with IPV6 enabled are not affected by this vulnerability.
Resolution ==========
All Python 2.2 users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge sync
# emerge -pv ">=dev-lang/python-2.2.2" # emerge ">=dev-lang/python-2.2.2"
