Red Hat Software Collections 1 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 6) - noarch Red Hat Software Collections 1 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 7) - noarch Red Hat Software Collections 1 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server EUS (v. 6.3) - noarch Red Hat Software Collections 1 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server EUS (v. 6.4) - noarch Red Hat Software Collections 1 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation (v. 6) - noarch Red Hat Software Collections 1 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation (v. 7) - noarch

3. Description:

Jinja2 is a template engine written in pure Python. It provides a Django-inspired, non-XML syntax but supports inline expressions and an optional sandboxed environment.

It was discovered that Jinja2 did not properly handle bytecode cache files stored in the system's temporary directory. A local attacker could use this flaw to alter the output of an application using Jinja2 and FileSystemBytecodeCache, and potentially execute arbitrary code with the privileges of that application. (CVE-2014-1402)

All Jinja2 users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. For the update to take effect, all applications using Jinja2 must be restarted.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at https://access.redhat.com/site/articles/11258

5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/):
