python2-2.7.16-1.fc30 and python2-docs-2.7.16-1.fc30

FEDORA-2019-0c91ce7b3c created by churchyard 6 years ago for Fedora 30

Update legacy Python to 2.7.16. Most significant improvement is that is builds against OpenSSL 1.1.1. See upstream release announcement and changelog (+ rc1 changelog).

Fixes the following CVEs:

  • CVE-2019-5010 Fix a NULL pointer deref in ssl module. The cert parser did not handle CRL distribution points with empty DP or URI correctly. A malicious or buggy certificate can result into segfault. Vulnerability (TALOS-2018-0758) reported by Colin Read and Nicolas Edet of Cisco.
  • CVE-2013-1752: Change use of readline() in imaplib.IMAP4_SSL to limit line length.

(CVE-2018-14647 is listed in upstream changelog, but it was already backported in Fedora.)

Note that Python 2 is deprecated in Fedora 30 and users are advised to switch to Python 3. Upstream support of Python 2 ends on 2020-01-01.
