Use sys.stdout for output in CGI scripts.
Escpecially with binary files.
Try this and see if the problem goes away

#################
#my CGISRIPT: test.py

#! /usr/bin/env python

import sys
sys.stdout("Content-type: image/jpeg\n\n")
 
filename="cgi-bin/dog.jpg"
img = open(filename, 'rb').read()
sys.stdout.write(img)
