* bpo-35755: shutil.which() uses os.confstr("CS_PATH") (GH-12858)
shutil.which() and distutils.spawn.find_executable() now use
os.confstr("CS_PATH") if available instead of os.defpath, if the PATH
environment variable is not set.
Don't use os.confstr("CS_PATH") nor os.defpath if the PATH
environment variable is set to an empty string.
Changes:
* find_executable() now starts by checking for the executable in the
current working directly case. Add an explicit
"if not path: return None".
* Add tests for PATH='' (empty string), PATH=':' and for PATHEXT.
(cherry picked from commit 228a3c99bd)
* bpo-35755: Remove current directory from posixpath.defpath (GH-11586)
Document the change in a NEWS entry of the Security category.
(cherry picked from commit 2c4c02f8a8)
distutils.spawn.find_executable() now falls back on os.defpath if the
PATH environment variable is not set.
(cherry picked from commit 39487196c8)
