Security issue discovered in Python

See: https://secunia.com/advisories/56234/

How dangerous is this for current versions of Armory?

The issue has been fixed in Python 2.7.6.

What version of Python is being used to build the Windows version of Armory?

I'm not 100% positive about this but I don't think Armory depends on the incriminated packages.

Armory 0.90 for Windows was built against Python 2.7.5. We will update to 2.7.6 for 0.91

Correct me if I'm wrong, but, the worse that'll cause is an "Out of memory" error, and, maybe an OS crash? Nothing like stolen BTC.

Please ask for a signed message from my on-site Bitcoin address (Check my profile) before doing any offsite trades with me.
