Fedora releases new python-pygments update addressing DoS vulnerability. Essential security fix implemented to bolster syntax highlighting features.
Security fix for [PUT CVEs HERE]

Summary

Pygments is a generic syntax highlighter for general use in all kinds

of software such as forum systems, wikis or other applications that

need to prettify source code. Highlights are:

* a wide range of common languages and markup formats is supported

* special attention is paid to details that increase highlighting

quality

* support for new languages and formats are added easily; most

languages use a simple regex-based lexing mechanism

* a number of output formats is available, among them HTML, RTF,

LaTeX and ANSI sequences

* it is usable as a command-line tool and as a library

* ... and it highlights even Brainf*ck!
