New submission from Christian Heimes:

Frawser Tweedle from Red Hat's identity management team found an issue in PyCA 
cryptography's handling of buffers for OpenSSL OBJ_obj2txt(). Cryptography 
fails to handle long OIDs as used by Active Directory.

https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/pull/3612/
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1455755

CPython's ssl module doesn't handle buffer allocation for OBJ_obj2txt() 
correctly, too. A default buffer size of 255+1 makes the bug less likely to 
occur, though. We should fix the problem anyway.
