AXSA:2009-270:01 advisory.

    Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming language often compared to Tcl, Perl,
    Scheme or Java. Python includes modules, classes, exceptions, very high level dynamic data types and
    dynamic typing. Python supports interfaces to many system calls and libraries, as well as to various
    windowing systems (X11, Motif, Tk, Mac and MFC).
    Programmers can write new built-in modules for Python in C or C++. Python can be used as an extension
    language for applications that need a programmable interface. This package contains most of the standard
    Python modules, as well as modules for interfacing to the Tix widget set for Tk and RPM.
    Note that documentation for Python is provided in the python-docs package.
    Fixed bugs:
    CVE-2007-4965
    Multiple integer overflows in the imageop module in Python 2.5.1 and earlier allow context-dependent
    attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly obtain sensitive information
    (memory contents) via crafted arguments to (1) the tovideo method, and unspecified other vectors related
    to (2) imageop.c, (3) rbgimgmodule.c, and other files, which trigger heap-based buffer overflows.
    - Removed cjkcodecs-1.1.1.tar.gz
    - Added socketmodule constants
    - Fixed xmlrpclib marchal problem (python bug #1739842)
    - Fixed fd leak in urllib2
    - Fixed httplib chunked encoding issues.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
