Upgrade Oracle:7 rpm-python to version 0:4.11.1-18.el7_0 or higher.
This issue was patched in ELSA-2014-1976.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rpm-python package and not the rpm-python package as distributed by Oracle.
See How to fix? for Oracle:7 relevant fixed versions and status.
Race condition in RPM 4.11.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted RPM file whose installation extracts the contents to temporary files before validating the signature, as demonstrated by installing a file in the /etc/cron.d directory.
