Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-0748-01

Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-0748-01
Posted Jun 12, 2014
Authored by Red Hat | Site access.redhat.com

Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-0748-01 - Jinja2 is a template engine written in pure Python. It provides a Django-inspired, non-XML syntax but supports inline expressions and an optional sandboxed environment. It was discovered that Jinja2 did not properly handle bytecode cache files stored in the system's temporary directory. A local attacker could use this flaw to alter the output of an application using Jinja2 and FileSystemBytecodeCache, and potentially execute arbitrary code with the privileges of that application. All Jinja2 users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. For the update to take effect, all applications using Jinja2 must be restarted.
