CVE-2023-5752 (GCVE-0-2023-5752)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2023-10-24 20:56 – Updated: 2025-11-03 17:31

Title

Mercurial configuration injectable in repo revision when installing via pip

Summary

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.

Severity

5.5 (Medium)

Summary

python-pip security update

Details

pip is the package installer for Python. You can use pip to install packages from the Python Package Index and other indexes. %global bashcompdir %(b=$(pkg-config --variable=completionsdir bash-completion 2>/dev/null); echo ${b:-/bash_completion.d}) Name: python-pip Version: 20.2.2 Release: 4 Summary: A tool for installing and managing Python packages License: MIT and Python and ASL 2.0 and BSD and ISC and LGPLv2 and MPLv2.0 and (ASL 2.0 or BSD) URL: http://www.pip-installer.org Source0: https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/source/p/pip/pip-.tar.gz BuildArch: noarch Patch1: allow-stripping-given-prefix-from-wheel-RECORD-files. Patch2: emit-a-warning-when-running-with-root-privileges.patch Patch3: remove-existing-dist-only-if-path-conflicts.patch Patch6000: dummy-certifi.patch Patch6001: backport-CVE-2021-3572.patch

Security Fix(es):

When following cross-origin redirects for requests made using urllib3's high-level APIs, such as urllib3.request(), PoolManager.request(), and ProxyManager.request(), sensitive headers — Authorization, Cookie, and Proxy-Authorization (defined in Retry.DEFAULT_REMOVE_HEADERS_ON_REDIRECT) — are stripped by default, as expected. However, cross-origin redirects followed from the low-level API via ProxyManager.connection_from_url().urlopen(..., assert_same_host=False) still forward these sensitive headers.(CVE-2026-44431)

Severity

8.2 (High)

Red Hat Security Advisory: Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.4 Product Security and Bug Fix Update

Severity

Moderate

Scope

20 vulnerabilities in this advisory, including CVE-2023-5752.

CVE-2023-5752

A flaw was found in the Python pip package. The pip could allow a local authenticated attacker to bypass security restrictions due to a flaw when installing a package from a Mercurial VCS URL. By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker can inject arbitrary configuration options to the "hg clone" call to modify how and which repository is installed.
