USN73-1 : python2.2, python2.3 vulnerability

Vulnerability Assessment Summary python2.2, python2.3 vulnerability Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : These remote packages are missing security patches : - idle-python2.2 - idle-python2.3 - python2.2 - python2.2-dev - python2.2-doc - python2.2-examples - python2.2-gdbm - python2.2-mpz - python2.2-tk - python2.2-xmlbase - python2.3 - python2.3-dev - python2.3-doc - python2.3-examples - python2.3-gdbm - python2.3-mpz - python2.3-tk Description : The Python developers discovered a flaw in the SimpleXMLRPCServer module. Python XML-RPC servers that used the register_instance() method to register an object, but do not have a _dispatch() method, permited remote users to access or change function internals using the im_* and func_* attributes. Solution : Upgrade to : - idle-python2.2-2.2.3-10ubuntu0.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - idle-python2.3-2.3.4-2ubuntu0.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - python2.2-2.2.3-10ubuntu0.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - python2.2-dev-2.2.3-10ubuntu0.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - python2.2-doc-2.2.3-10ubuntu0.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - python2.2-examples-2.2.3-10ubuntu0.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - python2.2-gdbm-2.2.3-10ubuntu0.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - python2.2-mpz-2.2.3-10ubuntu0.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - python2.2-tk-2.2.3-10ubuntu0.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - python2.2-xmlbase-2.2.3-10ubuntu0.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - python2.3 [...] Network Security Threat Level: High Networks Security ID: Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: Ubuntu Security Notice (C) 2005 Canonical, Inc. / NASL script (C) 2005 Michel Arboi
