+	<blockquote cite="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1062370">
+	  <p>A vulnerability was reported in Python's socket module, due to a
+	   boundary error within the sock_recvfrom_into() function, which could be
+	   exploited to cause a buffer overflow.  This could be used to crash a
+	   Python application that uses the socket.recvfrom_info() function or,
+	   possibly, execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user
+	   running vulnerable Python code.</p>
+
+	  <p>This vulnerable function, socket.recvfrom_into(), was introduced in
+	   Python 2.5.  Earlier versions are not affected by this flaw.</p>
