Description:
* SECURITY UPDATE: header injection via newline in email.Generator - debian/patches/CVE-2026-1299.patch: add HeaderWriteError exception to Lib/email/errors.py, add NEWLINE_WITHOUT_FWSP regex to Lib/email/generator.py and check the header *value* in all four branches of Generator._write_headers(), raising HeaderWriteError when a CR/LF without folding whitespace is found. Updates test_embedded_header_via_string_rejected to expect HeaderWriteError instead of HeaderParseError. In Python 2.7 this single Generator-class hardening covers both upstream CVE-2026-1299 (BytesGenerator) and CVE-2024-6923 because BytesGenerator does not exist in 2.7. - CVE-2026-1299 * SECURITY UPDATE: missing header-name newline check in email.Generator - debian/patches/CVE-2024-6923.patch: add NEWLINE_WITHOUT_FWSP check on the header *name* at the top of Generator._write_headers() in Lib/email/generator.py, raising HeaderWriteError when a CR/LF without folding whitespace is found in the header name. Documents HeaderWriteError in Doc/library/email.errors.rst and adds a test_invalid_header_format regression test in Lib/email/test/test_email_renamed.py. - CVE-2024-6923 * SECURITY UPDATE: ssl.SSLContext data race in cert_store_stats / get_ca_certs - debian/patches/CVE-2024-0397.patch: backport of upstream 3.8 commit 29c97287d2 ("[3.8] gh-114572: Fix locking in cert_store_stats and get_ca_certs"). Adds a polyfill of OpenSSL 3.3's X509_STORE_get1_objects() (deep-copy under X509_STORE_lock()) and replaces the shared, unlocked X509_STORE_get0_objects() calls in cert_store_stats() and get_ca_certs() in Modules/_ssl.c, preventing a memory race and potential use-after-free when an SSLContext is shared across multiple threads. - CVE-2024-0397 * SECURITY UPDATE: open redirect in BaseHTTPServer when path starts with // - debian/patches/CVE-2021-28861.patch: backport of upstream commit 4abab6b603 ("gh-87389: Fix an open redirection vulnerability in http.server"). In Lib/BaseHTTPServer.py, after the request line is parsed, collapse any leading run of '/' characters to a single '/' so an attacker-controlled '//evil.example/...' path cannot become an absolute scheme-less URI in a 301 Location header. Adds a regression test in Lib/test/test_httpservers.py. - CVE-2021-28861
