Redistributed TK libraries include out of date zlib
The copies of zlib included in tkcop.dll and tkezlib.dll rely on the 1.2.13 versions of the package, where the current version is 1.3.1:
Because SWAT and TK don't directly expose the tool which has a critical vulnerability, the high priority CVE isn't directly relevant, but it would still be great to resync so that security scanners and other consumers don't flag the package.
Working with SAS support, they closed the internal issue and said this public facing one was the right place to get this issue addressed. Can a contributor to the python-swat package please triage this issue? It is still present in the latest 1.15.0 wheels:
@bkemper24 Is this something that can be evaluated for inclusion in a future release?
I'm looking into this, but I don't have any information so far.
@bkemper24 Thanks for looking into this. I'd love if we could get this addressed in the TK libraries.
The TK libraries included in V1.16.0 contain an updated tkcop and tkezlib.
@bkemper24 Thanks! Marking this as closed, can confirm 1.16.0 includes zlib 1.3.1 in its TK library versions.
