Summary
Security update for python-numpy
Details

This update for python-numpy fixes the following issues:

Security issue fixed:

  • CVE-2019-6446: Set allowpickle to false by default to restrict loading untrusted content (bsc#1122208). With this update we decrease the possibility of allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by misusing numpy.load(). A warning during runtime will show-up when the allowpickle is not explicitly set.

NOTE: By applying this update the behavior of python-numpy changes, which might break your application. In order to get the old behaviour back, you have to explicitly set allow_pickle to True. Be aware that this should only be done for trusted input, as loading untrusted input might lead to arbitrary code execution.
