NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libpython3_6m1_0 package and not the libpython3_6m1_0 package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.1 relevant fixed versions and status.

Python before 2.6.8, 2.7.x before 2.7.3, 3.x before 3.1.5, and 3.2.x before 3.2.3 computes hash values without restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via crafted input to an application that maintains a hash table.
