Recent Pypa Pip Security Vulnerabilities
When installing a package from a Mercurial VCS URL (ie "pip install
hg+
CVE-2023-5752
3.3 - Low
- October 25, 2023
When installing a package from a Mercurial VCS URL (ie "pip install hg+...") with pip prior to v23.3, the specified Mercurial revision could be used to inject arbitrary configuration options to the "hg clone" call (ie "--config"). Controlling the Mercurial configuration can modify how and which repository is installed. This vulnerability does not affect users who aren't installing from Mercurial.
Command Injection
A flaw was found in python-pip in the way it handled Unicode separators in git references
CVE-2021-3572
5.7 - Medium
- November 10, 2021
A flaw was found in python-pip in the way it handled Unicode separators in git references. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to install a different revision on a repository. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data integrity. This is fixed in python-pip version 21.1.
The pip package before 19.2 for Python
CVE-2019-20916
7.5 - High
- September 04, 2020
The pip package before 19.2 for Python allows Directory Traversal when a URL is given in an install command, because a Content-Disposition header can have ../ in a filename, as demonstrated by overwriting the /root/.ssh/authorized_keys file. This occurs in _download_http_url in _internal/download.py.
Directory traversal
An issue was discovered in pip (all versions)
CVE-2018-20225
7.8 - High
- May 08, 2020
An issue was discovered in pip (all versions) because it installs the version with the highest version number, even if the user had intended to obtain a private package from a private index. This only affects use of the --extra-index-url option, and exploitation requires that the package does not already exist in the public index (and thus the attacker can put the package there with an arbitrary version number). NOTE: it has been reported that this is intended functionality and the user is responsible for using --extra-index-url securely
Improper Input Validation
pip 1.3 through 1.5.6
CVE-2014-8991
- November 24, 2014
pip 1.3 through 1.5.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (prevention of package installation) by creating a /tmp/pip-build-* file for another user.
pip before 1.3 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files
CVE-2013-1888
- August 17, 2013
pip before 1.3 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a file in the /tmp/pip-build temporary directory.
insecure temporary file
pip before 1.3 uses HTTP to retrieve packages from the PyPI repository, and does not perform integrity checks on package contents, which
CVE-2013-1629
- August 06, 2013
pip before 1.3 uses HTTP to retrieve packages from the PyPI repository, and does not perform integrity checks on package contents, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted response to a "pip install" operation.
