usn-3134-1
Vulnerability from osv_ubuntu
It was discovered that the smtplib library in Python did not return an error when StartTLS fails. A remote attacker could possibly use this to expose sensitive information. (CVE-2016-0772)
Rémi Rampin discovered that Python would not protect CGI applications from contents of the HTTP_PROXY environment variable when based on the contents of the Proxy header from HTTP requests. A remote attacker could possibly use this to cause a CGI application to redirect outgoing HTTP requests. (CVE-2016-1000110)
Insu Yun discovered an integer overflow in the zipimporter module in Python that could lead to a heap-based overflow. An attacker could use this to craft a special zip file that when read by Python could possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-5636)
Guido Vranken discovered that the urllib modules in Python did not properly handle carriage return line feed (CRLF) in headers. A remote attacker could use this to craft URLs that inject arbitrary HTTP headers. This issue only affected Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2016-5699)
