2) Incorrect provision of specified functionality
EUVDB-ID: #VU95157
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 6.4 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2024-4032
CWE-ID:
CWE-684 - Incorrect Provision of Specified Functionality
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists within the "ipaddress" module that contains incorrect information and private and public IP addresses for IPv4 and IPv6 protocols. This affects the is_private and is_global properties of the
ipaddress.IPv4Address, ipaddress.IPv4Network, ipaddress.IPv6Address, and
ipaddress.IPv6Network classes. A remote attacker can bypass implemented security restrictions based on IP addresses or perform other actions, depending on the application's capabilities.
