CVE-2021-3177

Disclosure Date: January 19, 2021
Add MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques that apply to this CVE.

Description

Python 3.x through 3.9.1 has a buffer overflow in PyCArg_repr in _ctypes/callproc.c, which may lead to remote code execution in certain Python applications that accept floating-point numbers as untrusted input, as demonstrated by a 1e300 argument to c_double.from_param. This occurs because sprintf is used unsafely.
