CVE-2024-3219 | BDVDB-2026-243721 Detail
Python Software FoundationCPython
Description#
The “socket” module provides a pure-Python fallback to the socket.socketpair() function for platforms that don’t support AF_UNIX, such as Windows. This pure-Python implementation uses AF_INET or AF_INET6 to create a local connected pair of sockets. The connection between the two sockets was not verified before passing the two sockets back to the user, which leaves the server socket vulnerable to a connection race from a malicious local peer. Platforms that support AF_UNIX such as Linux and macOS are not affected by this vulnerability. Versions prior to CPython 3.5 are not affected due to the vulnerable API not being included.
Impact#
Per CVSS v4.0: confidentiality impact low, integrity impact none, availability impact none. Attack vector: local.
Weaknesses#
- CWE-306 Missing Authentication for Critical Function
