CVE-2019-13404 | Date: (C)2019-07-09 (M)2024-04-19 |
The MSI installer for Python through 2.7.16 on Windows defaults to the C:Python27 directory, which makes it easier for local users to deploy Trojan horse code. (This also affects old 3.x releases before 3.5.) NOTE: the vendor's position is that it is the user's responsibility to ensure C:Python27 access control or choose a different directory, because backwards compatibility requires that C:Python27 remain the default for 2.7.x
