Hi release team
I would like to update ipython in wheezy to fix CVE-2014-3429
It is a remote execution flaw via cross origin websockets, but one
requires a uuid from the process in order to make use of it so it was
decided by the security team that its severe enough for a DSA.
But it should stil be fixed in stable just in case.
See this page for details of the issue:
