As reported upstream, the JSON module of Python is vulnerable for reading arbitrary process memory. Please apply the patch as included in the upstream bug report: http://bugs.python.org/issue21529

I'm not aware of any CVE assigned to this bug.

Patch is applied upstream in 2.7.7, so this only applies to current Ubuntu releases.
