CVE-2010-3492  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Centos:6 python-tools.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python-tools package and not the python-tools package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

The asyncore module in Python before 3.2 does not properly handle unsuccessful calls to the accept function, and does not have accompanying documentation describing how daemon applications should handle unsuccessful calls to the accept function, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct denial of service attacks that terminate these applications via network connections.
