+ Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming + language. +

+ +

+ Chris Evans reported multiple integer overflows in the expandtabs + method, as implemented by (1) the string_expandtabs function in + Objects/stringobject.c and (2) the unicode_expandtabs function in + Objects/unicodeobject.c. +

+
+ +

+ A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities in Python + applications or daemons that pass user-controlled input to vulnerable + functions. The security impact is currently unknown but may include the + execution of arbitrary code or a Denial of Service. +

+
+ +

+ There is no known workaround at this time. +
