Security update for python39
This update for python39 fixes the following issues: Security fixes: - CVE-2022-42919: Fixed local privilege escalation via the multiprocessing forkserver start method (bsc#1204886). - CVE-2022-45061: Fixed a quadratic IDNA decoding time (bsc#1205244). Other fixes: - Allow building of documentation with the latest Sphinx 5.3.0 (gh#python/cpython#98366). - Update to 3.9.15: - Fix multiplying a list by an integer (list *= int): detect the integer overflow when the new allocated length is close to the maximum size. - Fix a shell code injection vulnerability in the get-remote-certificate.py example script. The script no longer uses a shell to run openssl commands. (originally filed as CVE-2022-37460, later withdrawn) - Fix command line parsing: reject -X int_max_str_digits option with no value (invalid) when the PYTHONINTMAXSTRDIGITS environment variable is set to a valid limit. - When ValueError is raised if an integer is larger than the limit, mention the sys.set_int_max_str_digits() function in the error message. - Update bundled libexpat to 2.4.9
