* Mon Jul 22 2024 Matej Cepl - Remove %suse_update_desktop_file macro as it is not useful any more.
* Mon Jul 15 2024 Matej Cepl - Stop using %%defattr, it seems to be breaking proper executable attributes on /usr/bin/ scripts (bsc#1227378).
* Tue Jun 25 2024 Matej Cepl - Add CVE-2024-4032-private-IP-addrs.patch to fix bsc#1226448 (CVE-2024-4032) rearranging definition of private v global IP addresses.

* Sun Mar 24 2024 Matej Cepl - Add old-libexpat.patch making the test suite work with libexpat < 2.6.0 (gh#python/cpython#117187).
* Thu Mar 21 2024 Matej Cepl - Update to 3.8.19: - Security - gh-115398: Allow controlling Expat >=2.6.0 reparse deferral (CVE-2023-52425, bsc#1219559) by adding five new methods: xml.etree.ElementTree.XMLParser.flush() xml.etree.ElementTree.XMLPullParser.flush() xml.parsers.expat.xmlparser.GetReparseDeferralEnabled() xml.parsers.expat.xmlparser.SetReparseDeferralEnabled() xml.sax.expatreader.ExpatParser.flush() - gh-115399: Update bundled libexpat to 2.6.0 - gh-113659: Skip .pth files with names starting with a dot or hidden file attribute. - Core and Builtins - gh-102388: Fix a bug where iso2022_jp_3 and iso2022_jp_2004 codecs read out of bounds - Library - gh-115197: urllib.request no longer resolves the hostname before checking it against the system’s proxy bypass list on macOS and Windows. - gh-115133: Fix tests for XMLPullParser with Expat 2.6.0. - gh-81194: Fix a crash in socket.if_indextoname() with specific value (UINT_MAX). Fix an integer overflow in socket.if_indextoname() on 64-bit non-Windows platforms. - gh-109858: Protect zipfile from “quoted-overlap” zipbomb. It now raises BadZipFile when try to read an entry that overlaps with other entry or central directory (CVE-2024-0450, bsc#1221854). - gh-107077: Seems that in some conditions, OpenSSL will return SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL instead of SSL_ERROR_SSL when a certification verification has failed, but the error parameters will still contain ERR_LIB_SSL and SSL_R_CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED. We are now detecting this situation and raising the appropiate ssl.SSLCertVerificationError. Patch by Pablo Galindo - gh-91133: Fix a bug in tempfile.TemporaryDirectory cleanup, which now no longer dereferences symlinks when working around file system permission errors (CVE-2023-6597, bsc#1219666). - Documentation - gh-115399: Document CVE-2023-52425 of Expat <2.6.0 under “XML vulnerabilities”. - Tests - gh-108310: SSL tests for pre-handshake close were previously not enabled on Python 3.8 due to an incorrect backport.

Security issue reported as CVE-2023-40217 by Aapo Oksman. Patch by Gregory P. Smith. - gh-107845: tarfile.data_filter() now takes the location of symlinks into account when determining their target, so it will no longer reject some valid tarballs with LinkOutsideDestinationError. - gh-107565: Update multissltests and GitHub CI workflows to use OpenSSL 1.1.1v, 3.0.10, and 3.1.2.
* Thu Aug 03 2023 Matej Cepl - IT MEANS THAT bsc#1210638 STILL HAS NOT BEEN FIXED!- Add Revert-gh105127-left-tests.patch (gh#python/cpython!106941) partially reverting CVE-2023-27043-email-parsing-errors.patch, because of the regression in gh#python/cpython#106669.- (bsc#1210638, CVE-2023-27043) Add CVE-2023-27043-email-parsing-errors.patch, which detects email address parsing errors and returns empty tuple to indicate the parsing error (old API). (The patch is faulty, gh#python/cpython#106669, but upstream decided not to just revert it).
* Wed Jun 28 2023 Matej Cepl - Update to 3.8.17: - 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 (bsc#1208471). - 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-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. See Extraction filters for details (fixing CVE-2007-4559, bsc#1203750).- Remove upstreamed patches: - CVE-2023-24329-blank-URL-bypass.patch - CVE-2007-4559-filter-tarfile_extractall.patch
* Sat May 06 2023 Matej Cepl - Add 99366-patch.dict-can-decorate-async.patch fixing gh#python/cpython#98086 (backport from Python 3.10 patch in gh#python/cpython!99366), fixing bsc#1211158.
* Wed May 03 2023 Matej Cepl - Add CVE-2007-4559-filter-tarfile_extractall.patch to fix CVE-2007-4559 (bsc#1203750) by adding the filter for tarfile.extractall (PEP 706).

* Fri Jan 27 2023 Thorsten Kukuk - Disable NIS for new products, it\'s deprecated and gets removed
* Fri Jan 13 2023 Martin Liška - Suppress warnings for Sphinx 6.0+.
* Thu Dec 08 2022 Matej Cepl - Update to 3.8.16: - 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. - Avoid publishing list of active per-interpreter audit hooks via the gc module - 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 (CVE-2022-45061). - Update bundled libexpat to 2.5.0 - Port XKCP’s fix for the buffer overflows in SHA-3 (CVE-2022-37454). - The deprecated mailcap module now refuses to inject unsafe text (filenames, MIME types, parameters) into shell commands. Instead of using such text, it will warn and act as if a match was not found (or for test commands, as if the test failed).- Removed upstream patches: - CVE-2022-37454-sha3-buffer-overflow.patch - CVE-2022-45061-DoS-by-IDNA-decode.patch

* implementations (originally from the XKCP library).
* Fri Oct 21 2022 Matej Cepl - Add 98437-sphinx.locale._-as-gettext-in-pyspecific.patch to allow building of documentation with the latest Sphinx 5.3.0 (gh#python/cpython#98366).
* Thu Oct 20 2022 Daniel Garcia - Add platlibdir-in-sys.patch to provide sys.platlibdir attribute. This is used by python-setuptools in distutils.sysconfig.get_python_lib bsc#1204395
* Wed Oct 19 2022 Matej Cepl - Update to 3.8.15: - Fix multiplying a list by an integer (list
*= int): detect the integer overflow when the new allocated length is close to the maximum size. - 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. (originally filed as CVE-2022-37460, later withdrawn) - Fix command line parsing: reject -X int_max_str_digits option with no value (invalid) when the PYTHONINTMAXSTRDIGITS environment variable is set to a valid limit. - When ValueError is raised if an integer is larger than the limit, mention the sys.set_int_max_str_digits() function in the error message. - Update bundled libexpat to 2.4.9 - Fixes a potential buffer overrun in msilib.
* Sun Sep 11 2022 Matej Cepl - Update to 3.8.14: - (CVE-2020-10735, bsc#1203125). Converting between int and str in bases other than 2 (binary), 4, 8 (octal), 16 (hexadecimal), or 32 such as base 10 (decimal) now raises a ValueError if the number of digits in string form is above a limit to avoid potential denial of service attacks due to the algorithmic complexity. This new limit can be configured or disabled by environment variable, command line flag, or sys APIs. See the integer string conversion length limitation documentation. The default limit is 4300 digits in string form. - (CVE-2021-28861, bsc#1202624) http.server: Fix an open redirection vulnerability in the HTTP server when an URI path starts with //. Vulnerability discovered, and initial fix proposed, by Hamza Avvan. - Also other bugfixes: - Fix contextvars HAMT implementation to handle iteration over deep trees. The bug was discovered and fixed by Eli Libman. See MagicStack/immutables#84 for more details. - Fix ensurepip environment isolation for subprocess running pip. - Raise ProgrammingError instead of segfaulting on recursive usage of cursors in sqlite3 converters. Patch by Sergey Fedoseev. - Add a new gh role to the documentation to link to GitHub issues. - Pin Jinja to a version compatible with Sphinx version 2.4.4. - test_ssl is now checking for supported TLS version and protocols in more tests. - Fix test case for OpenSSL 3.0.1 version. OpenSSL 3.0 uses 0xMNN00PP0L.- Removed upstreamed patches: - CVE-2021-28861-double-slash-path.patch- Readjusted patches: - bpo-31046_ensurepip_honours_prefix.patch - sphinx-update-removed-function.patch

* Tue Oct 12 2021 Dominique Leuenberger - BuildRequire rpm-build-python: The provider to inject python(abi) has been moved there. rpm-build pulls rpm-build-python automatically in when building anything against python3-base, but this implies that the initial build of python3-base does not trigger the automatic installation.
* Tue Aug 31 2021 Fusion Future - Update to 3.8.12
* Complete list of changes is available at https://docs.python.org/release/3.8.12/whatsnew/changelog.html
* Security - bpo-42278: Replaced usage of tempfile.mktemp() with TemporaryDirectory to avoid a potential race condition. - bpo-44394: Update the vendored copy of libexpat to 2.4.1 (from 2.2.8) to get the fix for the CVE-2013-0340 “Billion Laughs” vulnerability. This copy is most used on Windows and macOS. - bpo-43124: Made the internal putcmd function in smtplib sanitize input for presence of \\r and \
characters to avoid (unlikely) command injection. - bpo-36384: ipaddress module no longer accepts any leading zeros in IPv4 address strings. Leading zeros are ambiguous and interpreted as octal notation by some libraries. For example the legacy function socket.inet_aton() treats leading zeros as octal notation. glibc implementation of modern inet_pton() does not accept any leading zeros. For a while the ipaddress module used to accept ambiguous leading zeros.- Refreshed patch:
* decimal-3.8.patch
* Fri Aug 27 2021 Matej Cepl - Add decimal-3.8.patch to add building with --with-system-libmpdec option (bsc#1189356).
* Thu Aug 26 2021 Andreas Schwab - test_faulthandler is still problematic under qemu linux-user emulation, disable it there- Reenable profileopt with qemu emulation, test_faulthandler is no longer run during profiling
* Tue Aug 10 2021 Fusion Future - Update to 3.8.11
* Security - bpo-44022 (boo#1189241): mod:http.client now avoids infinitely reading potential HTTP headers after a 100 Continue status response from the server. - bpo-43882: The presence of newline or tab characters in parts of a URL could allow some forms of attacks. Following the controlling specification for URLs defined by WHATWG urllib.parse() now removes ASCII newlines and tabs from URLs, preventing such attacks. - bpo-42800: Audit hooks are now fired for frame.f_code, traceback.tb_frame, and generator code/frame attribute access.
* Core and Builtins - bpo-44070: No longer eagerly makes import filenames absolute, except for extension modules, which was introduced in 3.8.10.
* Library - bpo-44061: Fix regression in previous release when calling pkgutil.iter_modules() with a list of pathlib.Path objects
* Mon Aug 02 2021 Matej Cepl - Use versioned python-Sphinx to avoid dependency on other version of Python (bsc#1183858).

* Fri May 21 2021 Matej Cepl - Stop providing \"python\" symbol (bsc#1185588), which means python2 currently.
* Wed May 05 2021 Matej Cepl - Update to 3.8.10: - 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. - bpo-43930: Update bundled pip to 21.1 and setuptools to 56.0.0 - bpo-43920: OpenSSL 3.0.0: load_verify_locations() now returns a consistent error message when cadata contains no valid certificate. - bpo-43607: urllib can now convert Windows paths with \\\\?\\ prefixes into URL paths. - bpo-43284: platform.win32_ver derives the windows version from sys.getwindowsversion().platform_version which in turn derives the version from kernel32.dll (which can be of a different version than Windows itself). Therefore change the platform.win32_ver to determine the version using the platform module’s _syscmd_ver private function to return an accurate version. - bpo-42248: [Enum] ensure exceptions raised in _missing__ are released - bpo-43799: OpenSSL 3.0.0: define OPENSSL_API_COMPAT 1.1.1 to suppress deprecation warnings. Python requires OpenSSL 1.1.1 APIs. - bpo-43794: Add ssl.OP_IGNORE_UNEXPECTED_EOF constants (OpenSSL 3.0.0) - bpo-43789: OpenSSL 3.0.0: Don’t call the password callback function a second time when first call has signaled an error condition. - bpo-43788: The header files for ssl error codes are now OpenSSL version-specific. Exceptions will now show correct reason and library codes. The make_ssl_data.py script has been rewritten to use OpenSSL’s text file with error codes. - bpo-43655: tkinter dialog windows are now recognized as dialogs by window managers on macOS and X Window. - bpo-43534: turtle.textinput() and turtle.numinput() create now a transient window working on behalf of the canvas window. - bpo-43522: Fix problem with hostname_checks_common_name. OpenSSL does not copy hostflags from struct SSL_CTX to struct SSL. - bpo-42967: Allow bytes separator argument in urllib.parse.parse_qs and urllib.parse.parse_qsl when parsing str query strings. Previously, this raised a TypeError. - bpo-43176: Fixed processing of a dataclass that inherits from a frozen dataclass with no fields. It is now correctly detected as an error. - bpo-34463: Fixed discrepancy between traceback and the interpreter in formatting of SyntaxError with lineno not set (traceback was changed to match interpreter). - bpo-41735: Fix thread locks in zlib module may go wrong in rare case. Patch by Ma Lin. - bpo-26053: Fixed bug where the pdb interactive run command echoed the args from the shell command line, even if those have been overridden at the pdb prompt. - bpo-36470: Fix dataclasses with InitVars and replace(). Patch by Claudiu Popa. - bpo-28577: The hosts method on 32-bit prefix length IPv4Networks and 128-bit prefix IPv6Networks now returns a list containing the single Address instead of an empty list. - bpo-32745: Fix a regression in the handling of ctypes’ ctypes.c_wchar_p type: embedded null characters would cause a ValueError to be raised. Patch by Zackery Spytz. - Documentation - bpo-43959: The documentation on the PyContextVar C-API was clarified. - bpo-43938: Update dataclasses documentation to express that FrozenInstanceError is derived from AttributeError. - bpo-43739: Fixing the example code in Doc/extending/extending.rst to declare and initialize the pmodule variable to be of the right type. - Tests - bpo-43842: Fix a race condition in the SMTP test of test_logging. Don’t close a file descriptor (socket) from a different thread while asyncore.loop() is polling the file descriptor. Patch by Victor Stinner. - bpo-43811: Tests multiple OpenSSL versions on GitHub Actions. Use ccache to speed up testing. - bpo-43791: OpenSSL 3.0.0: Disable testing of legacy protocols TLS 1.0 and 1.1. Tests are failing with TLSV1_ALERT_INTERNAL_ERROR. - IDLE - bpo-43655: IDLE dialog windows are now recognized as dialogs by window managers on macOS and X Window. - C API - bpo-43962: _PyInterpreterState_IDIncref() now calls _PyInterpreterState_IDInitref() and always increments id_refcount. Previously, calling _xxsubinterpreters.get_current() could create an id_refcount inconsistency when a _xxsubinterpreters.InterpreterID object was deallocated. Patch by Victor Stinner.- Reapplied patches: - CVE-2019-5010-null-defer-x509-cert-DOS.patch - F00102-lib64.patch - SUSE-FEDORA-multilib.patch - bpo-31046_ensurepip_honours_prefix.patch - python-3.3.0b1-fix_date_time_compiler.patch
* Sun May 02 2021 Ben Greiner - Make sure to close the import_failed.map file after the exception has been raised in order to avoid ResourceWarnings when the failing import is part of a try...except block.
* Wed Apr 28 2021 Matej Cepl - Update to 3.8.9: - bpo#42988 (bsc#1183374) CVE-2021-3426: Remove the getfile feature of the 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. - bpo-43285: 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 ftplib.FTP instances to True to re-enable it. - bpo-43439: Add audit hooks for gc.get_objects(), gc.get_referrers() and gc.get_referents(). Patch by Pablo Galindo. - bpo-43660: Fix crash that happens when replacing sys.stderr with a callable that can remove the object while an exception is being printed. Patch by Pablo Galindo. - bpo-35883: Python no longer fails at startup with a fatal error if a command line argument contains an invalid Unicode character. The Py_DecodeLocale() function now escapes byte sequences which would be decoded as Unicode characters outside the [U+0000; U+10ffff] range. - bpo-43406: Fix a possible race condition where PyErr_CheckSignals tries to execute a non-Python signal handler. - bpo-35930: Raising an exception raised in a “future” instance will create reference cycles. - bpo-43577: Fix deadlock when using ssl.SSLContext debug callback with ssl.SSLContext.sni_callback(). - bpo-43423: subprocess.communicate() no longer raises an IndexError when there is an empty stdout or stderr IO buffer during a timeout on Windows. - bpo-27820: Fixed long-standing bug of smtplib.SMTP where doing AUTH LOGIN with initial_response_ok=False will fail. The cause is that SMTP.auth_login _always_ returns a password if provided with a challenge string, thus non-compliant with the standard for AUTH LOGIN. Also fixes bug with the test for smtpd. - bpo-43399: Fix ElementTree.extend not working on iterators when using the Python implementation - bpo-43316: The python -m gzip command line application now properly fails when detecting an unsupported extension. It exits with a non-zero exit code and prints an error message to stderr. - bpo-43260: Fix TextIOWrapper can not flush internal buffer forever after very large text is written. - bpo-42782: Fail fast in shutil.move() to avoid creating destination directories on failure. - bpo-37193: Fixed memory leak in socketserver.ThreadingMixIn introduced in Python 3.7. - bpo-43199: Answer “Why is there no goto?” in the Design and History FAQ. - bpo-43407: Clarified that a result from time.monotonic(), time.perf_counter(), time.process_time(), or time.thread_time() can be compared with the result from any following call to the same function - not just the next immediate call. - bpo-27646: Clarify that ‘yield from ’ works with any iterable, not just iterators. - bpo-36346: Update some deprecated unicode APIs which are documented as “will be removed in 4.0” to “3.12”. See PEP 623 for detail. - bpo-37945: Fix test_getsetlocale_issue1813() of test_locale: skip the test if setlocale() fails.
