Python Image Library (PIL) 1.1.7 and earlier and Pillow 2.3 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in unspecified vectors related to CVE-2014-1932, possibly JpegImagePlugin.py.

The version of python-pillow installed on the remote host is prior to 2.0.0-23.gitd1c6db8. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2023-2286 advisory.

  - The (1) load_djpeg function in JpegImagePlugin.py, (2) Ghostscript function in EpsImagePlugin.py, (3) load     function in IptcImagePlugin.py, and (4) _copy function in Image.py in Python Image Library (PIL) 1.1.7 and     earlier and Pillow before 2.3.1 do not properly create temporary files, which allow local users to     overwrite arbitrary files and obtain sensitive information via a symlink attack on the temporary file.
    (CVE-2014-1932)

  - The (1) JpegImagePlugin.py and (2) EpsImagePlugin.py scripts in Python Image Library (PIL) 1.1.7 and     earlier and Pillow before 2.3.1 uses the names of temporary files on the command line, which makes it     easier for local users to conduct symlink attacks by listing the processes. (CVE-2014-1933)

  - Python Image Library (PIL) 1.1.7 and earlier and Pillow 2.3 might allow remote attackers to execute     arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in unspecified vectors related to CVE-2014-1932, possibly     JpegImagePlugin.py. (CVE-2014-3007)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

According to the versions of the python-pillow package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Integer overflow in the ImagingResampleHorizontal     function in libImaging/Resample.c in Pillow before     3.1.1 allows remote attackers to have unspecified     impact via negative values of the new size, which     triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.(CVE-2016-4009)

  - An issue was discovered in urllib2 in Python 2.x     through 2.7.17 and urllib in Python 3.x through 3.8.0.
    CRLF injection is possible if the attacker controls a     url parameter, as demonstrated by the first argument to     urllib.request.urlopen with \r\n (specifically in the     host component of a URL) followed by an HTTP header.
    This is similar to the CVE-2019-9740 query string issue     and the CVE-2019-9947 path string issue. (This is not     exploitable when glibc has CVE-2016-10739     fixed.)(CVE-2014-3589)

  - Python Image Library (PIL) 1.1.7 and earlier and Pillow     2.3 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary     commands via shell metacharacters in unspecified     vectors related to CVE-2014-1932, possibly     JpegImagePlugin.py.(CVE-2014-3007)

  - The documentation XML-RPC server in Python through     2.7.16, 3.x through 3.6.9, and 3.7.x through 3.7.4 has     XSS via the server_title field. This occurs in     Lib/DocXMLRPCServer.py in Python 2.x, and in     Lib/xmlrpc/server.py in Python 3.x. If set_server_title     is called with untrusted input, arbitrary JavaScript     can be delivered to clients that visit the http URL for     this server.(CVE-2014-1933)

  - Directory traversal vulnerability in the (1) extract     and (2) extractall functions in the tarfile module in     Python allows user-assisted remote attackers to     overwrite arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) sequence     in filenames in a TAR archive, a related issue to     CVE-2001-1267.(CVE-2014-1932)

  - An issue was discovered in Pillow before 6.2.0. When     reading specially crafted invalid image files, the     library can either allocate very large amounts of     memory or take an extremely long period of time to     process the image.(CVE-2019-16865)

  - libImaging/FliDecode.c in Pillow before 6.2.2 has an     FLI buffer overflow.(CVE-2020-5313)

  - libImaging/PcxDecode.c in Pillow before 6.2.2 has a PCX     P mode buffer overflow.(CVE-2020-5312)

  - Buffer overflow in the ImagingPcdDecode function in     PcdDecode.c in Pillow before 3.1.1 and Python Imaging     Library (PIL) 1.1.7 and earlier allows remote attackers     to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted     PhotoCD file.(CVE-2016-2533)

Updated python-imaging packages fix security vulnerabilities :

Jakub Wilk discovered that temporary files were insecurely created (via mktemp()) in the IptcImagePlugin.py, Image.py, JpegImagePlugin.py, and EpsImagePlugin.py files of Python Imaging Library. A local attacker could use this flaw to perform a symbolic link attack to modify an arbitrary file accessible to the user running an application that uses the Python Imaging Library (CVE-2014-1932).

Jakub Wilk discovered that temporary files created in the JpegImagePlugin.py and EpsImagePlugin.py files of the Python Imaging Library were passed to an external process. These could be viewed on the command line, allowing an attacker to obtain the name and possibly perform symbolic link attacks, allowing them to modify an arbitrary file accessible to the user running an application that uses the Python Imaging Library (CVE-2014-1933).

The Python Imaging Library is vulnerable to a denial of service attack in the IcnsImagePlugin (CVE-2014-3589).

Python Image Library (PIL) 1.1.7 and earlier and Pillow 2.3 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters, due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2014-1932 (CVE-2014-3007).

Pillow before 2.7.0 and 2.6.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a compressed text chunk in a PNG image that has a large size when it is decompressed (CVE-2014-9601).

Security fix for CVE-2014-3007, updated fix for CVE-2014-1932.
Followup fix for CVE-2014-1933.
