:cve:`2021-3426`: Remove the ``getfile`` feature of the :mod:`pydoc` module
|
|
which could be abused to read arbitrary files on the disk (directory
|
|
traversal vulnerability). Moreover, even source code of Python modules can
|
|
contain sensitive data like passwords. Vulnerability reported by David
|
|
Schwörer.

:mod:`ftplib` no longer trusts the IP address value returned from the server
|
|
in response to the PASV command by default. This prevents a malicious FTP
|
|
server from using the response to probe IPv4 address and port combinations
|
|
on the client network.
|
|
|
|
Code that requires the former vulnerable behavior may set a
|
|
``trust_server_pasv_ipv4_address`` attribute on their :class:`ftplib.FTP`
|
|
instances to ``True`` to re-enable it.

CPython now sets the ``SA_ONSTACK`` flag in ``PyOS_setsig`` for the VM's

|
default signal handlers. This is friendlier to other in-process code that

|
an extension module or embedding use could pull in (such as Golang's cgo)

|
where tiny thread stacks are the norm and ``sigaltstack()`` has been used to
|
|
provide for signal handlers. This is a no-op change for the vast majority
|
|
of processes that don't use sigaltstack.

Add a radix tree based memory map to track in-use obmalloc arenas. Use to
|
|
replace the old implementation of address_in_range(). The radix tree
|
|
approach makes it easy to increase pool sizes beyond the OS page size.
|
|
Boosting the pool and arena size allows obmalloc to handle a significantly
|
|
higher percentage of requests from its ultra-fast paths.
|
|
|
|
It also has the advantage of eliminating the memory unsanitary behavior of
|
|
the previous address_in_range(). The old address_in_range() was marked with
|
|
the annotations _Py_NO_SANITIZE_ADDRESS, _Py_NO_SANITIZE_THREAD, and
|
|
_Py_NO_SANITIZE_MEMORY. Those annotations are no longer needed.
|
|
|
|
To disable the radix tree map, set a preprocessor flag as follows:
|
|
``-DWITH_PYMALLOC_RADIX_TREE=0``.

Fixed long-standing bug of smtplib.SMTP where doing AUTH LOGIN with

The cause is that SMTP.auth_login _always_ returns a password if provided

LOGIN.

Performance enhancements to distribution discovery.

``entry_points`` only returns unique distributions.

Introduces new ``EntryPoints`` object for containing a set of entry points

with convenience methods for selecting entry points by group or name.
|
|
``entry_points`` now returns this object if selection parameters are
|
|
supplied but continues to return a dict object for compatibility. Users are

|
encouraged to rely on the selection interface. The dict object result is
|
|
likely to be deprecated in the future.

Added packages_distributions function to return a mapping of packages to the

distributions that provide them.

The limited C API is now supported if Python is built in debug mode (if the
|
|
``Py_DEBUG`` macro is defined). In the limited C API, the
|
|
:c:func:`Py_INCREF` and :c:func:`Py_DECREF` functions are now implemented as
|
|
opaque function calls, rather than accessing directly the
|
|
:c:member:`PyObject.ob_refcnt` member, if Python is built in debug mode and
|
|
the ``Py_LIMITED_API`` macro targets Python 3.10 or newer. It became
|
|
possible to support the limited C API in debug mode because the
|
|
:c:type:`PyObject` structure is the same in release and debug mode since
|
|
Python 3.8 (see :issue:`36465`).
|
|
|
|
The limited C API is still not supported in the ``--with-trace-refs``
|
|
special build (``Py_TRACE_REFS`` macro).
