In a user based installation (which most applications shipping their own Python installation are), you can always do this provided you can gain the application user permissions.

Of course, if the application is shipping it’s own Python then it has to actually do something to update to 2.7.9 and it can add it’s own option to disable TLS verification. I personally think that the application providing that option is the right way and all these other things are, at best, just temporary shims until the applications do that.
