Red Hat Bugzilla 2257028 0 medium NEW CVE-2023-52323 pycryptodome: side-channel leakage for OAEP decryption in PyCryptodome and pycryptodomex 2025-11-17 16:44:01 UTC

Description David Mueller 2025-11-17 16:44:01 UTC 
Description of problem:

python-pycryptodomex for EPEL-8 is still version 3.10.1 and is thus affected by CVE-2023-52323. This CVE was fixed in version 3.19.1 so it needs to be updated to at least that version to resolve the CVE. EPEL-9 contains 3.20.0; 3.21.0 is the newest version that is viable for EPEL-8 since Python 3.6 support was removed in 3.22.0 per the upstream changelog: https://www.pycryptodome.org/src/changelog

This vulnerability was fixed in several RHEL packages that include pycryptodome in bug #2257028.
