method in difflib (CVE-2018-1061)

* python: Missing salt initialization in _elementtree.c module
(CVE-2018-14647)

* python: CRLF injection via the query part of the url passed to urlopen()
(CVE-2019-9740)

* python: CRLF injection via the path part of the url passed to urlopen()
(CVE-2019-9947)

* python: Undocumented local_file protocol allows remote attackers to
bypass protection mechanisms (CVE-2019-9948)

* python: DOS via regular expression catastrophic backtracking in apop()
method in pop3lib (CVE-2018-1060)
