python: Fix CVE-2014-1912
A remote user can send specially crafted data to trigger a buffer overflow in socket.recvfrom_into() and execute arbitrary code on the target system. The code will run with the privileges of the target service. This back-ported patch fixes CVE-2014-1912 (From OE-Core rev: 344049ccfa59ae489c35fe0fb7592f7d34720b51) Signed-off-by: Maxin B.
