* :func:`os.mkdir` and :func:`os.makedirs` on Windows now support passing a
*mode* value of ``0o700`` to apply access control to the new directory. This
implicitly affects :func:`tempfile.mkdtemp` and is a mitigation for
:cve:`2024-4030`. Other values for *mode* continue to be ignored.

:func:`os.mkdir` on Windows now accepts *mode* of ``0o700`` to restrict
the new directory to the current user. This fixes :cve:`2024-4030`
affecting :func:`tempfile.mkdtemp` in scenarios where the base temporary
directory is more permissive than the default.
