CVE ID : CVE-2017-1000158


A minor security vulnerability has been discovered in Python 2.7, an
interactive high-level object-oriented language.

CVE-2017-1000158

CPython (the reference implementation of Python also commonly known
as simply Python) versions 2.6 and 2.7 are vulnerable to an integer
overflow and heap corruption, leading to possible arbitrary code
execution. The nature of the error has to do with improper handling
of large strings with escaped characters.

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
2.7.3-6+deb7u4.

We recommend that you upgrade your python2.7 packages.
