- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in Python.

Software Description:
- python3.11: An interactive high-level object-oriented language
- python3.10: An interactive high-level object-oriented language
- python3.8: An interactive high-level object-oriented language

Details:

USN-6513-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Python. This update provides the
corresponding updates for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, and
Ubuntu 23.04.

Original advisory details:

 It was discovered that Python incorrectly handled certain plist files.
 If a user or an automated system were tricked into processing a specially
 crafted plist file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to consume
 resources, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2022-48564)

 It was discovered that Python instances of ssl.SSLSocket were vulnerable
 to a bypass of the TLS handshake. An attacker could possibly use this
 issue to cause applications to treat unauthenticated received data before
 TLS handshake as authenticated data after TLS handshake. (CVE-2023-40217)

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:

Ubuntu 23.04:
  python3.11                      3.11.4-1~23.04.1

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS:
  python3.10                      3.10.12-1~22.04.3
