+ <background>
+ <p>PySAML2 is a pure python implementation of SAML2</p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>It was found that the PySAML2 relies on an assert statement to check the
+ user’s password. A python optimizations might remove this assertion.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A remote attacker could bypass security restrictions and access any
+ application which is using PySAML2 for authentication.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>Disable python optimizations.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All PySAML2 4.0 users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-python/pysaml2-4.0.2-r3"
+ </code>
