Synopsis:

pyOpenSSL security updateSummary:

An update for pyOpenSSL is now available for openEuler-24.03-LTSDescription:

pyOpenSSL is a rather thin wrapper around (a subset of) the OpenSSL library. With thin wrapper we mean that a lot of the object methods do nothing more than calling a corresponding function in the OpenSSL library.

Security Fix(es):

A security vulnerability exists in the PyOpenSSL library's set_tlsext_servername_callback function. When a user-provided callback function raises an unhandled exception, the connection would still be accepted. If a user relies on this callback for any security-sensitive behavior (such as server name-based access control or certificate validation), this vulnerability could allow the security mechanism to be bypassed, potentially permitting unauthorized connections or access.(CVE-2026-27448)

pyOpenSSL is a Python wrapper around the OpenSSL library. Starting in version 22.0.0 and prior to version 26.0.0, if a user provided callback to set_cookie_generate_callback returned a cookie value greater than 256 bytes, pyOpenSSL would overflow an OpenSSL provided buffer. Starting in version 26.0.0, cookie values that are too long are now rejected.(CVE-2026-27459)Topic:

An update for pyOpenSSL is now available for openEuler-24.03-LTS.
