CVE-2014-1402

Publication date 19 May 2014

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

The default configuration for bccache.FileSystemBytecodeCache in Jinja2 before 2.7.2 does not properly create temporary files, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted .cache file with a name starting with __jinja2_ in /tmp.
