    IPy is a Python module for handling IPv4 and IPv6 Addresses and Networks
    in a fashion similar to perl's Net::IP and friends. The IP class allows
    a comfortable parsing and handling for most notations in use for IPv4
    and IPv6 Addresses and Networks.

    CVE-2014-4616
    ** RESERVED **

    CVE-2014-4650
    ** RESERVED **
    This candidate has been reserved by an organization or individual that
    will use it when announcing a new security problem.  When the
    candidate has been publicized, the details for this candidate will be
    provided.
    CVE-2014-7185
    Integer overflow in bufferobject.c in Python before 2.7.8 allows
    context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive information from
    process memory via a large size and offset in a buffer function.
    Fixed bugs:
    * Subprocesses used with the Eventlet library or regular threads previously tried to close epoll file
    descriptors twice, which led to an Invalid argument error. Subprocesses have been fixed to close the
    file descriptors only once.
    * When importing the readline module from a Python script, Python no longer produces erroneous random
    characters on stdout.
    * The cProfile utility has been fixed to print all values that the -s option supports when this option
    is used without a correct value.
    * The load_cert_chain() function now accepts None as a keyfile argument.
    Enhancements:
    * Security enhancements as described in PEP 466 have been backported to the Python standard library, for
    example, new features of the ssl module: Server Name Indication (SNI) support, support for new TLSv1.x
    protocols, new hash algorithms in the hashlib module, and many more.
    * Support for the ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1_2 protocol has been added to the ssl library.
    * The ssl.SSLSocket.version() method is now available to access information about the version of the SSL
    protocol used in a connection.

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