                Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory
________________________________________________________________________

Package name:           python
Advisory ID:            MDKSA-2002:082
Date:                   November 25th, 2002

Affected versions:      7.2, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, 9.0,
                        Single Network Firewall 7.2
________________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

 A vulnerability was discovered in python by Zack Weinberg in the way
 that the execvpe() method from the os.py module uses a temporary file
 name.  The file is created in an unsafe manner and execvpe() tries to
 execute it, which can be used by a local attacker to execute arbitrary
 code with the privilege of the user running the python code that is
 using this method.

If you want to upgrade manually, download the updated package from one
of our FTP server mirrors and upgrade with "rpm -Fvh *.rpm".  A list of
FTP mirrors can be obtained from:

  http://www.mandrakesecure.net/en/ftp.php

Please verify the update prior to upgrading to ensure the integrity of
the downloaded package.  You can do this with the command:

  rpm --checksig <filename>

All packages are signed by MandrakeSoft for security.  You can obtain
the GPG public key of the Mandrake Linux Security Team from:
