Python reports:

gh-100001: python -m http.server no longer allows terminal control characters sent within a garbage request to be printed to the stderr server log. This is done by changing the http.server BaseHTTPRequestHandler .log_message method to replace control characters with a \xHH hex escape before printing.

gh-87604: Avoid publishing list of active per-interpreter audit hooks via the gc module.

gh-98433: 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.

gh-98739: Update bundled libexpat to 2.5.0.

gh-97612: 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.

gh-103142: The version of OpenSSL used in Windows and Mac installers has been upgraded to 1.1.1u to address CVE-2023-2650, CVE-2023-0465, CVE-2023-0466, CVE-2023-0464, as well as CVE-2023-0286, CVE-2022-4303, and CVE-2022-4303 fixed previously in 1.1.1t (gh-101727).

gh-102153: urllib.parse.urlsplit() now strips leading C0 control and space characters following the specification for URLs defined by WHATWG in response to CVE-2023-24329.

gh-99889: Fixed a security in flaw in uu.decode() that could allow for directory traversal based on the input if no out_file was specified.

gh-104049: Do not expose the local on-disk location in directory indexes produced by http.client.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler.

gh-101283: subprocess.Popen now uses a safer approach to find cmd.exe when launching with shell=True.

gh-103935: trace.__main__ now uses io.open_code() for files to be executed instead of raw open().

gh-102953: The extraction methods in tarfile, and shutil.unpack_archive(), have a new filter argument that allows limiting tar features than may be surprising or dangerous, such as creating files outside the destination directory.

gh-102126: Fixed a deadlock at shutdown when clearing thread states if any finalizer tries to acquire the runtime head lock.

gh-100892: Fixed a crash due to a race while iterating over thread states in clearing threading.local.
