CVE-2011-4103 · GHSA-pvhp-v9qp-xf5r
- Affected
- PyPI django-piston >= 0.2.0, < 0.2.2.1
- Fixed in
- 0.2.2.1· Vendor fix available
- Issue
- emitters.py in Django Piston before 0.2.3 and 0.2.x before 0.2.2.1 does not properly deserialize YAML data, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary Python code via vectors related to the yaml.load method. Django Tastypie has a very similar vulnerability.
Recommended action: Upgrade to 0.2.2.1 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
