All of the OpenStack 2013.2.1 include the fixes for the CVEs, and aren't
embargoed anymore. Here's the list that it would fix if I could upload them:

Heat: CVE-2013-6428, CVE-2013-6426
Keystone: CVE-2013-6391
Neutron: CVE-2013-6419
Nova: CVE-2013-7048, CVE-2013-6419

There's no security problem at all in python-iso8601 itself. It's just
that I need version 0.1.8 for the new point release of OpenStack, which
fixes the above CVE, as version 0.1.4 is incompatible with version 0.1.8
(there's some API changes, unfortunately).

This is the first time I face such a problem, with a dependency needing
a refresh, to be able to address a security problem. So, in such case,
it it acceptable to NMU python-iso8601 in the delayed/2 queue,
considering the urgency?

Cheers,

Thomas Goirand (zigo)

P.S: Since these CVE aren't embargoed, and fixes are already publicly
released, I'm adding 732...@bugs.debian.org (and therefore, Benjamin
Mako Hill), in the loop.
