A vulnerability was found in the Python core plistlib library within the read_ints() function in the plistlib.py file. In malformed input, the implementation can be manipulated to create an argument for struct.unpack(). This issue can lead to excessive CPU and memory consumption, resulting in a MemError, as it constructs the ‘format’ argument for unpack(). This flaw allows an attacker to employ a binary plist input, potentially executing a denial of service (DoS) attack by exhausting CPU and RAM resources.
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
