Summary
Updated python packages fix CVE-2013-4328 and pip
Details

Updated python packages fix security vulnerability:

Ryan Sleevi of the Google Chrome Security Team has discovered that Python's SSL module doesn't handle NULL bytes inside subjectAltNames general names. This could lead to a breach when an application uses ssl.match_hostname() to match the hostname againt the certificate's subjectAltName's dNSName general names. (CVE-2013-4238).

Additionally, an issue with installing Python packages with C extensions via pip and virtualenv has been fixed in Mageia 3 (mga#10102).
