<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
users 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>
<p>All PySAML2 4.5 users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
