 Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                         MDVSA-2008:012
 http://www.mandriva.com/security/
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Package : python
 Date    : January 14, 2008
 Affected: Corporate 3.0, Multi Network Firewall 2.0
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Problem Description:
 
 An integer overflow flaw was discovered in how python's pcre module
 handled certain regular expressions.  If a python application using the
 pcre module were to compile and execute untrusted regular expressions,
 it could possibly lead to an application crash or the excution
 of arbitrary code with the privileges of the python interpreter
 (CVE-2006-7228).
 
 Multiple integer overflows were found in python's imageop module.
 If an application written in python used the imageop module to
 process untrusted images, it could cause the application to crash,
 enter an infinite loop, or possibly execute arbitrary code with the
 privileges of the python interpreter (CVE-2007-4965).
 
 The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
