This security bulletin contains information about 2 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2013-7459)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
Heap-based buffer overflow in the ALGnew function in block_templace.c in Python Cryptography Toolkit (aka pycrypto) allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code as demonstrated by a crafted iv parameter to cryptmsg.py.
2) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-6594)
The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information on the target system.The weakness exists in the ElGamal implementation in PyCrypto due to generation of weak ElGamal key parameters by the source code in the lib/Crypto/PublicKey/ElGamal.py file. A remote attacker can gain access to potentially sensitive information.
