VLAI
Summary
python3.10, python3.8 vulnerabilities
Details

It was discovered that the Python ssl module contained a memory race condition when handling the APIs to obtain the CA certificates and certificate store statistics. This could possibly result in applications obtaining wrong results, leading to various SSL issues. (CVE-2024-0397)

It was discovered that the Python ipaddress module contained incorrect information about which IP address ranges were considered "private" or "globally reachable". This could possibly result in applications applying incorrect security policies. (CVE-2024-4032)
