- python -m http.server no longer allows terminal control
characters sent within a garbage request to be printed
to the stderr server lo This is done by changing the
http.server BaseHTTPRequestHandler .log_message method to
replace control characters with a \xHH hex escape before
printin
- Avoid publishing list of active per-interpreter audit hooks
via the gc module
- The IDNA codec decoder used on DNS hostnames by socket or
asyncio related name resolution functions no longer involves
a quadratic algorithm. This prevents a potential CPU denial
of service if an out-of-spec excessive length hostname
involving bidirectional characters were decoded. Some
protocols such as urllib http 3xx redirects potentially allow
for an attacker to supply such a name (CVE-2022-45061).
- Update bundled libexpat to 2.5.0
- Fix a shell code injection vulnerability in the
get-remote-certificate.py example script. The script no
longer uses a shell to run openssl commands. Issue reported
and initial fix by Caleb Shortt. Patch by Victor Stinner.
- Fix a crash when an object which does not have a dictionary
frees its instance values.
- Fix a bug in the tokenizer that could cause infinite
recursion when showing syntax warnings that happen in the
first line of the source. Patch by Pablo Galindo
- Fix an issue that could cause frames to be visible to Python
code as they are being torn down, possibly leading to memory
corruption or hard crashes of the interpreter.
- Fix a reference bug in _imp.create_builtin() after the

Python 3 in SUSE
==============
* Subpackages *
Python 3 is split into several subpackages, based on external dependencies.
The main package 'python3' has soft dependencies on all subpackages needed to
assemble the standard library; however, these might not all be installed by default.
If you attempt to import a module that is currently not installed, an ImportError is thrown,
with instructions to install the missing subpackage. Installing the subpackage might result
in installing libraries that the subpackage requires to function.
* ensurepip *
The 'ensurepip' module from Python 3 standard library (PEP 453) is supposed to deploy
a bundled copy of the pip installer. This makes no sense in a managed distribution like SUSE.
Instead, you need to install package 'python3-pip'. Usually this will be installed automatically
with 'python3'.
Using 'ensurepip' when pip is not installed will result in an ImportError with instructions
to install 'python3-pip'.
* Documentation *
You can find documentation in seprarate packages: python3-doc and
python3-doc-pdf. These contan following documents:
Tutorial, What's New in Python, Global Module Index, Library Reference,
Macintosh Module Reference, Installing Python Modules, Distributing Python
Modules, Language Reference, Extending and Embedding, Python/C API,
Documenting Python
The python3-doc package constains many text files from source tarball.
* Interactive mode *
Interactive mode is by default enhanced with of history and command completion.
If you don't like these features, you can unset the PYTHONSTARTUP variable
in your .profile or disable it system wide in /etc/profile.d/python.sh.
