"Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the interpreter for
the Python language. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
identifies the following problems :

  - CVE-2007-2052
    Piotr Engelking discovered that the strxfrm() function
    of the locale module miscalculates the length of an
    internal buffer, which may result in a minor information
    disclosure.

  - CVE-2007-4965
    It was discovered that several integer overflows in the
    imageop module may lead to the execution of arbitrary
    code, if a user is tricked into processing malformed
    images. This issue is also tracked as CVE-2008-1679 due
    to an initially incomplete patch.

  - CVE-2008-1721
    Justin Ferguson discovered that a buffer overflow in the
    zlib module may lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

  - CVE-2008-1887
    Justin Ferguson discovered that insufficient input
    validation in PyString_FromStringAndSize() may lead to
    the execution of arbitrary code."
