• CVE-2023-41105 not fixed in bookworm

    From Richard van den Berg@21:1/5 to All on Fri Mar 1 09:20:01 2024
    Dear security team,

    May I ask why CVE-2023-41105 was marked as "<no-dsa> (Minor issue)"[1] ?

    As the CVE description says there are plausible cases where this can
    lead to security issues.

    There is a backport available for python 3.11 and it seems most other
    distros have patched this CVE.

    Kind regards,

    Richard van den Berg

    The current open issues for python3.11 in bookworm do not warrant a
    DSA on it's own, but that does not mean that they cannot be fixed
    (though someone needs to step up and do the work).

    The current three open CVEs CVE-2023-24329, CVE-2023-40217 and
    CVE-2023-41105 could be batched together and fixed in a point release
    (there is one upcoming on 2024-04-06, whith the window for uploads
    closing the preceeding weekend).

    Regards,
    Salvatore

    Security Exploits / CVE?

    Look no matter what OS, or SOFTWARE you run on your electronics hardware.

    At the end of the day, Electronics has a fatal flaw. And cannot be secured.

    That flaw has been known about since Electronics was invented / discovered.

    And any notion of " Security " of electronics, or software operating on electronics.

    Is a delusional thought.

    Security is porous, as Steve Gibson would said. The harder you look, the
    more you find. However, it doesn't mean that "security is a delusional thought", that's false. Security is crucial. Think of security as an
    ongoing process, to patch up every leak as soon as we can, because every
    day there will be another hole though which water will start to seep.
