Synopsis

Important: Red Hat OpenStack Platform 17.0 (python-werkzeug) security update

Type/Severity

Security Advisory Important

Topic

An update for python-werkzeug is now available for Red Hat OpenStack Platform 17.0 (Wallaby).

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

Description

Werkzeug ======== Werkzeug started as simple collection of various utilities for WSGI applications and has become one of the most advanced WSGI utility modules. It includes a powerful debugger, full featured request and response objects, HTTP utilities to handle entity tags, cache control headers, HTTP dates, cookie handling, file uploads, a powerful URL routing system and a bunch of community contributed addon modules. Werkzeug is unicode aware and doesn't enforce a specific template engine, database adapter or anything else. It doesn't even enforce a specific way of handling requests and leaves all that up to the developer. It's most useful for end user applications which should work on as many server environments as possible (such as blogs, wikis, bulletin boards, etc.).

Security Fix(es):

  • high resource usage when parsing multipart form data with many fields (CVE-2023-25577)
