NCPA Python vulnerabilities

Post by proddan »

Hi Everyone,

You're probably already aware, but the current version of NCPA contains a version of python which is affected by some recently published CVEs.

More details here.

Hopefully we get a new version asap.

Thanks,


Peter.

Hi @proddan,

Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

NCPA 3.2.3 which was released last week, shipped with the latest version of python3.13 that is currently available 3.13.11. It is also not immediately clear if updating to 3.14.2 or 3.15.0 (pre-release) would fix the vulnerabilities as the affected python versions in the CVE's are unspecified.

It's going to be at least a month before the next NCPA release. In the meantime, you can always download the source code for NCPA and build your own binaries with whatever version of python you like.
Cheers,
- Cole
