CVE-2026-8643 — pip can extract console_scripts and gui_scripts outside installation directory

Affected: Python Packaging Authority pip, Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.5 for RHEL 8, Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.5 for RHEL 9, Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.6 for RHEL 9, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9, Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.5, Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.6, Red Hat Discovery 2, Red Hat Hardened Images and 27 more

pip would treat console_scripts and gui_scripts as paths instead of file names without sanitizing the resolved absolute path to the installation directory, leading to entry points being installed outside the installation directory.

GHSA-537c-gmf6-5ccf — Vulnerable OpenSSL included in cryptography wheels

Affected: PyPI: cryptography

pyca/cryptography's wheels include a statically linked copy of OpenSSL. The versions of OpenSSL included in wheels prior to cryptograph 48.01 are vulnerable to a security issue. More details about the vulnerability itself can be found in https://openssl-library.org/news/secadv/20260609.txt.

If you are building cryptography source ("sdist") then you are responsible for upgrading your copy of OpenSSL. Only users installing from wheels built by the cryptography project (i.e., those distributed on PyPI) need to update their cryptography versions.
