CVE-2021-29510
Pydantic is a data validation and settings management using Python type hinting. In affected versions passing either `'infinity'`, `'inf'` or `float('inf')` (or their negatives) to `datetime` or `date` fields causes validation to run forever with 100% CPU usage (on one CPU). Pydantic has been patched with fixes available in the following versions: v1.8.2, v1.7.4, v1.6.2. All these versions are available on pypi(https://pypi.org/project/pydantic/#history), and will be available on conda-forge(https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/pydantic) soon. See the changelog(https://pydantic-docs.helpmanual.io/) for details. If you absolutely can't upgrade, you can work around this risk using a validator(https://pydantic-docs.helpmanual.io/usage/validators/) to catch these values. This is not an ideal solution (in particular you'll need a slightly different function for datetimes), instead of a hack like this you should upgrade pydantic. If you are not using v1.8.x, v1.7.x or v1.6.x and are unable to upgrade to a fixed version of pydantic, please create an issue at https://github.com/samuelcolvin/pydantic/issues requesting a back-port, and we will endeavour to release a patch for earlier versions of pydantic.

Impact Passing either 'infinity', 'inf' or float('inf') (or their negatives) to datetime or date fields causes validation to run forever with 100% CPU usage (on one CPU). Patches Pydantic is be patched with fixes available in the following versions: v1.8.2 v1.7.4 v1.6.2 All these versions are available on pypi, and will be available on conda-forge soon. See the changelog for details. Workarounds If you absolutely can't upgrade, you can work around this risk using a validator to catch these values, brief demo: from datetime import date from pydantic import BaseModel, validator class DemoModel(BaseModel): date_of_birth: date @validator('date_of_birth', pre=True) def skip_infinite_values(cls, v): try: seconds = float(v) except (ValueError, TypeError): return v else: if seconds == float('inf'): return date.max elif seconds == float('-inf'): return date.min else: return seconds Note: this is not an ideal solution (in particular you'll need a slightly different function for datetimes), instead of a hack like this you should upgrade pydantic. If you are not using v1.8.x, v1.7.x or v1.6.x and are unable to upgrade to a fixed version of pydantic, please create an issue requesting a back-port, and we will endeavour to release a patch for earlier versions of pydantic.
