Python Interpreter

Edit Package python

Python is an interpreted, object-oriented programming language, and is
often compared to Tcl, Perl, Scheme, or Java. You can find an overview
of Python in the documentation and tutorials included in the python-doc
(HTML) or python-doc-pdf (PDF) packages.

If you want to install third party modules using distutils, you need to
install python-devel package.

- Add PygmentsBridge-trime_doctest_flags.patch to allow build of
  the documentation even with the current Sphinx. (SUSE-ONLY
  PATCH, DO NOT SEND UPSTREAM!)
- Add PygmentsBridge-trime_doctest_flags.patch to allow build of
  the documentation even with the current Sphinx. (SUSE-ONLY
  PATCH, DO NOT SEND UPSTREAM!)
- Add PygmentsBridge-trime_doctest_flags.patch to allow build of
  the documentation even with the current Sphinx. (SUSE-ONLY
  PATCH, DO NOT SEND UPSTREAM!)
- Why in the world we download from HTTP?
- Enable --with-system-ffi for non-standard architectures.
- SLE-12 builds nis.so as well.
- Add CVE-2023-24329-blank-URL-bypass.patch (CVE-2023-24329,
  bsc#1208471) blocklists bypass via the urllib.parse component
  when supplying a URL that starts with blank characters
- Disable NIS for new products, it's deprecated and gets removed
- Add skip_unverified_test.patch because apparently switching off
  SSL verification doesn't work on older SLE.

- 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.
- Older SLE versions should use old OpenSSL.
- Add CVE-2022-0391-urllib_parse-newline-parsing.patch
  (bsc#1195396, CVE-2022-0391, bpo#43882) sanitizing URLs

  not trust the PASV response.
- build against openssl 1.1.x (incompatible with openssl 3.0x)
  for now.
- on sle12, python2 modules will still be called python-xxxx until EOL,
  for newer SLE versions they will be python2-xxxx
- 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.
- Add CVE-2019-20907_tarfile-inf-loop.patch fixing bsc#1174091
  (CVE-2019-20907, bpo#39017) avoiding possible infinite loop

  * sphinx-update-removed-function.patch
- Update documentation formatting for Sphinx 3.0 (bpo#40204).
- Add bpo43075-fix-ReDoS-in-request.patch which fixes ReDoS in
  request (bpo#43075, boo#1189287).
- Add missing security announcement to
  bpo44022-fix-http-client-infinite-line-reading-after-a-HTTP-100-Continue.patch.

- Update to 2.7.18, final release of Python 2. Ever.:
  - Newline characters have been escaped when performing uu
    encoding to prevent them from overflowing into to content
    section of the encoded file. This prevents malicious or
    accidental modification of data during the decoding process.
  - Fixes a ReDoS vulnerability in `http.cookiejar`. Patch by Ben
    Caller.
  - Fixed line numbers and column offsets for AST nodes for calls
    without arguments in decorators.

    macOS Catalina.
  - Fixed possible leak in `PyArg_Parse` and similar
    functions for format units "es#" and "et#" when the macro
    `PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN` is not defined.
- Remove upstreamed patches:
  - CVE-2019-18348-CRLF_injection_via_host_part.patch

  warning about dangers of zip-bombs and other security problems
  with zipfile library. (bsc#1162825 CVE-2019-9674)
- Change to Requires: libpython%{so_version} == %{version}-%{release}
  to python-base to keep both packages always synchronized (add
  %{so_version}) (bsc#1162224).
- Add CVE-2020-8492-urllib-ReDoS.patch fixing the security bug
  "Python urrlib allowed an HTTP server to conduct Regular
  Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS)" (bsc#1162367)
- Provide python-testsuite from devel subkg to ease py2->py3
  dependencies
- Add python-2.7.17-switch-off-failing-SSL-tests.patch to switch
  off tests coliding with the combination of modern Python and
  ancient OpenSSL on SLE-12.
- libnsl is required only on more recent SLEs and openSUSE, older
  glibc supported NIS on its own.
- Add provides in gdbm subpackage to provide dbm symbols. This
  allows us to use %%{python_module dbm} as a dependency and have
  it properly resolved for both python2 and python3
- Drop appstream-glib BuildRequires and no longer call
  appstream-util validate-relax: eliminate a build cycle between
  as-glib and python. The only thing would would gain by calling
  as-uril is catching if upstream breaks the appdata.xml file in a
  future release. Considering py2 is dying, chances for a new
  release, let alone one breaking the xml file, are slim.
- Unify packages among openSUSE:Factory and SLE versions.
  (bsc#1159035) ; add missing records to this changelog.
- Add idle.desktop and idle.appdata.xml to provide IDLE in menus
  (bsc#1153830)

  bsc#1149792
- Add adapted-from-F00251-change-user-install-location.patch fixing
  pip/distutils to install into /usr/local.
- Update to 2.7.17:

- bsc#1138459: add CVE-2019-10160-netloc-port-regression.patch
  which fixes regression introduced by the previous patch.
  (CVE-2019-10160)
  Upstream gh#python/cpython#13812
-  Set _lto_cflags to nil as it will prevent to propage LTO
   for Python modules that are built in a separate package.
- bsc#1130840 (CVE-2019-9947): add CVE-2019-9947-no-ctrl-char-http.patch
  Address the issue by disallowing URL paths with embedded
  whitespace or control characters through into the underlying

    which are fully included in the tarball.
  * Updated patches to apply cleanly:
        CVE-2019-5010-null-defer-x509-cert-DOS.patch
        bpo36160-init-sysconfig_vars.patch
        do-not-use-non-ascii-in-test_ssl.patch

- bsc#1109847 (CVE-2018-14647): add
  CVE-2018-14647_XML_SetHashSalt-in_elementtree.patch fixing
  bpo-34623.
- bsc#1073748: add bpo-29347-dereferencing-undefined-pointers.patch
  PyWeakref_NewProxy@Objects/weakrefobject.c creates new isntance
  of PyWeakReference struct and does not intialize wr_prev and
  wr_next of new isntance. These pointers can have garbage and
  point to random memory locations. 
  Python should not crash while destroying the isntance created
  in the same interpreter function. As per my understanding, both
  wr_prev and wr_next of PyWeakReference instance should be
  initialized to NULL to avoid segfault. 
- bsc#1122191: add CVE-2019-5010-null-defer-x509-cert-DOS.patch
  fixing bpo-35746 (CVE-2019-5010).
  An exploitable denial-of-service vulnerability exists in the
  X509 certificate parser of Python.org Python 2.7.11 / 3.7.2.
  A specially crafted X509 certificate can cause a NULL pointer
  dereference, resulting in a denial of service. An attacker can
  initiate or accept TLS connections using crafted certificates
  to trigger this vulnerability.
- Use upstream-recommended %{_rpmconfigdir}/macros.d directory
  for the rpm macros.
- Add patch openssl-111.patch to work with openssl-1.1.1
  (bsc#1113755)
- Apply "CVE-2018-1000802-shutil_use_subprocess_no_spawn.patch" which
  converts shutil._call_external_zip to use subprocess rather than
  distutils.spawn. [bsc#1109663, CVE-2018-1000802]
- Apply "CVE-2018-1061-DOS-via-regexp-difflib.patch" to prevent
  low-grade poplib REDOS (CVE-2018-1060) and to prevent difflib REDOS
  (CVE-2018-1061). Prior to this patch mail server's timestamp was
  susceptible to catastrophic backtracking on long evil response from
  the server. Also, it was susceptible to catastrophic backtracking,
  which was a potential DOS vector.
  [bsc#1088004 and bsc#1088009, CVE-2018-1061 and CVE-2018-1060]
- Apply "CVE-2017-18207.patch" to add a check to Lib/wave.py that
  verifies that at least one channel is provided. Prior to this
  check, attackers could cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero
  error and application crash) via a crafted wav format audio file.
  [bsc#1083507, CVE-2017-18207]
- Apply "python-sorted_tar.patch" (bsc#1086001, boo#1081750)
    sort tarfile output directory listing
- update to 2.7.15
  * dozens of bugfixes, see NEWS for details
- removed obsolete patches:
  * python-ncurses-6.0-accessors.patch
  * python-fix-shebang.patch
  * gcc8-miscompilation-fix.patch
- add patch from upstream:
