CVE-2020-14343: Oracle Communications Cloud Native Core Network Function Cloud Native Environment

Critical severity, CVSS 9.8. EPSS: 6% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

A vulnerability was discovered in the PyYAML library in versions before 5.4, where it is susceptible to arbitrary code execution when it processes untrusted YAML files through the full_load method or with the FullLoader loader. Applications that use the library to process untrusted input may be vulnerable to this flaw. This flaw allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system by abusing the python/object/new constructor. This flaw is due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2020-1747.

Affected products

  • Oracle Communications Cloud Native Core Network Function Cloud Native Environment: version 1.10.0 only; version 22.1.0 only
  • Pyyaml Pyyaml: from 5.1, before 5.4 (fixed in 5.4)
