CVE-2021-3177

Python 3.x through 3.9.1 has a buffer overflow in PyCArg_repr in _ctypes/callproc.c, which may lead to remote code execution in certain Python applications that accept floating-point numbers as untrusted input, as demonstrated by a 1e300 argument to c_double.from_param. This occurs because sprintf is used unsafely.

Python versiones 3.x hasta 3.9.1, presenta un desbordamiento de búfer en la función PyCArg_repr en el archivo _ctypes/callproc.c, que puede conllevar a una ejecución de código remota en determinadas aplicaciones de Python que aceptan números de punto flotante como entrada no confiable, como es demostrado por un argumento 1e300 para c_double.from_param. Esto ocurre porque sprintf es usado de manera no segura
