USN-5931-1: Python vulnerability

Releases

• Ubuntu 18.04 ESM

Packages

• python3.8 - An interactive high-level object-oriented language

Details

It was discovered that Python incorrectly handled certain inputs. If a
user or an automated system were tricked into running a specially
crafted input, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to execute
arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-37454)

Update instructions

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions:

Ubuntu 18.04

• python3.8-minimal - 3.8.0-3ubuntu1~18.04.2+esm1
  Available with Ubuntu Pro
• python3.8 - 3.8.0-3ubuntu1~18.04.2+esm1
  Available with Ubuntu Pro

In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
