- Security
- bpo-43434: Creating a sqlite3.Connection object now also
produces a sqlite3.connect auditing event. Previously this
event was only produced by sqlite3.connect() calls. Patch
by Erlend E. Aasland.
- bpo-43472: Ensures interpreter-level audit hooks receive
the cpython.PyInterpreterState_New event when called
through the _xxsubinterpreters module.
- bpo-43075: Fix Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS)
vulnerability in urllib.request.AbstractBasicAuthHandler.
The ReDoS-vulnerable regex has quadratic worst-case
complexity and it allows cause a denial of service when
identifying crafted invalid RFCs. This ReDoS issue is on
the client side and needs remote attackers to control the
HTTP server.
- Core and Builtins
- bpo-43105: Importlib now resolves relative paths when
creating module spec objects from file locations.
- bpo-42924: Fix bytearray repetition incorrectly copying
data from the start of the buffer, even if the data is
offset within the buffer (e.g. after reassigning a slice at
the start of the bytearray to a shorter byte string).
- Library
- bpo-43993: Update bundled pip to 21.1.1.
- bpo-43937: Fixed the turtle module working with non-default
root window.
