"Multiple flaws were found in the Python rgbimg module. If an
application written in Python was using the rgbimg module and loaded a
specially crafted SGI image file, it could cause the application to
crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the
user running the application. (CVE-2009-4134, CVE-2010-1449,
CVE-2010-1450)

This update also fixes the following bugs :

  - Python 2.3.4's time.strptime() function did not
    correctly handle the '%W' week number format string.
    This update backports the _strptime implementation from
    Python 2.3.6, fixing this issue. (BZ#436001)

  - Python 2.3.4's socket.htons() function returned
    partially-uninitialized data on IBM System z, generally
    leading to incorrect results. (BZ#513341)

  - Python 2.3.4's pwd.getpwuid() and grp.getgrgid()
    functions did not support the full range of user and
    group IDs on 64-bit architectures, leading to
    'OverflowError' exceptions for large input values. This
    update adds support for the full range of user and group
    IDs on 64-bit architectures. (BZ#497540)"
