DESCRIPTION
 The package mod_python[1] provides an Apache module that embeds the
 Python interpreter within the server.
 
 This annoucement fixes an information leak vulnerability[2] in
 mod_python which could allow a remote attacker to obtain access to
 restricted objects via a specially crafted URL.


SOLUTION
 All mod_python users should do the upgrade. Notice that after the
 installation you have to restart the httpd service manually in order
 to load the new module. To achieve this you may execute the following
 command (as root):
 
 # service httpd restart
