CVE-2023-6597 unimportant priority: Debian including 4 source packages (pypy3, python2.7, python3.11, python3.9), 8 status rows across 5 suites (bookworm, bullseye, forky, sid, trixie): resolved 8.
An issue was found in the CPython `tempfile.TemporaryDirectory` class affecting versions 3.12.1, 3.11.7, 3.10.13, 3.9.18, and 3.8.18 and prior. The tempfile.TemporaryDirectory class would dereference symlinks during cleanup of permissions-related errors. This means users which can run privileged programs are potentially able to modify permissions of files referenced by symlinks in some circumstances.
