Description Martin Prpič 2017-01-02 15:27:41 UTC
It was found that python-tqdm executes the 'git log -n 1 --oneline' command when imported. A crafted Git repository configured to execute a particular script on a 'git log' could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running an application that imports the tqdm module.

Comment 2 Igor Gnatenko 2017-02-11 13:10:04 UTC
Martin, please file bug for EPEL7 as well. It also contains this security issue.

I don't maintain EPEL version, so not going to fix it.
