package(s) announced via the FEDORA-2018-ee97fc9e81 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Python 2 is an old version of the language that is incompatible with the 3.x
line of releases. The language is mostly the same, but many details, especially
how built-in objects like dictionaries and strings work, have changed
considerably, and a lot of deprecated features have finally been removed in the
3.x line.

Note that documentation for Python 2 is provided in the python2-docs
package.

This package provides the 'python2' executable, most of the actual
implementation is within the 'python2-libs' package.

Affected Software/OS:
'python2' package(s) on Fedora 29.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
