SUSE Recommended Update: Recommended update for python-Twisted
______________________________________________________________________________
Announcement ID: SUSE-RU-2015:1977-1
Rating: moderate
References: #940813
Affected Products:
SUSE Linux Enterprise Module for Web Scripting 12
SUSE Enterprise Storage 2
SUSE Enterprise Storage 1.0
______________________________________________________________________________
An update that has one recommended fix can now be installed.
Description:
python-Twisted has been updated to version 15.2.1, which brings several
fixes and enhancements such as:
- twisted.positioning, a new API for positioning systems such as GPS, has
been added. It comes with an implementation of NMEA, the most common
wire protocol for GPS devices. It will supersede twisted.protocols.gps.
- IReactorUDP.listenUDP, IUDPTransport.write and IUDPTransport.connect now
accept ipv6 address literals.
- A new API, twisted.internet.ssl.optionsForClientTLS, allows clients to
specify and verify the identity of the peer they're communicating with.
When used with the service_identity library from PyPI, this provides
support for service identity verification from RFC 6125, as well as
server name indication from RFC 6066.
- Twisted's TLS support now provides a way to ask for user-configured
trust roots rather than having to manually configure such certificate
authority certificates.
- twisted.internet.ssl.CertificateOptions now supports ECDHE for servers
by default
on pyOpenSSL 0.14 and later, if the underlying versions of
cryptography.io and OpenSSL support it.
- twisted.internet.ssl.CertificateOptions now allows the user to set
acceptable ciphers and uses secure ones by default.
- The new package twisted.logger provides a new, fully tested, and
feature-rich logging framework. The old module twisted.python.log is now
implemented using the new framework.
- twisted.conch.ssh.forwarding now supports local->remote forwarding of
IPv6.
- twisted.mail.smtp.sendmail now uses ESMTP. It will opportunistically
enable encryption and allow the use of authentication.
- twisted.internet.ssl.CertificateOptions now enables TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2
by default (in addition to TLSv1.0) if the underlying version of OpenSSL
supports these protocol versions.
- twisted.internet.ssl.CertificateOptions now supports Diffie-Hellman key
exchange.
- twisted.internet.ssl.CertificateOptions now disables TLS compression to
avoid CRIME attacks and, for servers, uses server preference to choose
the cipher.
- MSN protocol support has been marked as deprecated.
- Removed deprecated UDPClient.
- Better support and integration with Python 3.

within the package.
