    CVE-2013-2217

    Summary: Updated python-suds package fixes security vulnerability

    Details: An insecure temporary directory use flaw was found in the way python-suds performed initialization of its internal file-based URL cache (predictable location was used for directory to store the cached files). A local attacker could use this flaw to conduct symbolic link attacks, possibly leading to their ability for example the SOAP .wsdl metadata to redirect queries to a different host, than originally intended (CVE-2013-2217).
