Can upstream please confirm/deny what is going on here, I'm pressed
for time recently and don't have time to wade through the code to
determine what's up, as I see it:

1) did a CVE number get recycled? E.g. you fixed the issue referred to
in CVE-2013-4142 in mongodb but then label it with CVE-2013-2132?

2) are these in fact in need of a CVE merge? (seems unlikely since one
is mongodb, and the other is the python driver, so different code bases)

3) some other option?

I guess my biggest concern right now is confirming that CVE-2013-4142
( http://blog.scrt.ch/2013/06/04/mongodb-rce-by-databasespraying/) is
in fact fixed in release 2.4.5 of mongoDB. Thanks!
