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.
Integer overflow in RPM 4.12 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted CPIO header in the payload section of an RPM file, which triggers a stack-based buffer overflow.
