This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Epic Games Launcher. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The ZDI has assigned a CVSS rating of 7.8. The following CVEs are assigned: CVE-2024-11872.
gh-122792: Changed IPv4-mapped ipaddress.IPv6Address to consistently use the mapped IPv4 address value for deciding properties. Properties which have their behavior fixed are is_multicast, is_reserved, is_link_local, is_global, and is_unspecified.
CVE-2024-9287: gh-124651: Properly quote template strings in venv activation scripts.

CVE-2024-9287: gh-124651: Properly quote template strings in venv activation scripts. gh-103848: Added checks to ensure that [ bracketed ] hosts found by urllib.parse.urlsplit() are of IPv6 or IPvFuture format. gh-95588: Clarified the conflicting advice given in the ast documentation about ast.literal_eval() being “safe” for use on untrusted input while at the same time warning that it can crash the process. The latter statement is true and is deemed unfixable without a large amount of work unsuitable for a bugfix. So we keep the warning and no longer claim that literal_eval is safe.
