CVE-2013-5123  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-287  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.3 python39-pip to version 20.2.4-7.5.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python39-pip package and not the python39-pip package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.3 relevant fixed versions and status.

The mirroring support (-M, --use-mirrors) in Python Pip before 1.5 uses insecure DNS querying and authenticity checks which allows attackers to perform man-in-the-middle attacks.
