- Update to 3.11.8:
* Security
* gh-113659: Skip .pth files with names starting with a dot or
hidden file attribute.
* Core and Builtins
* gh-114887: Changed socket type validation in
create_datagram_endpoint() to accept all non-stream sockets.
This fixes a regression in compatibility with raw sockets.
* gh-114388: Fix a RuntimeWarning emitted when assign an
integer-like value that is not an instance of int to an
attribute that corresponds to a C struct member of type T_UINT
and T_ULONG. Fix a double RuntimeWarning emitted when assign a
negative integer value to an attribute that corresponds to a C
struct member of type T_UINT.
* gh-89811: Check for a valid tp_version_tag before performing
bytecode specializations that rely on this value being usable.
* gh-113602: Fix an error that was causing the parser to try to
overwrite existing errors and crashing in the process. Patch by
Pablo Galindo
* gh-113566: Fix a 3.11-specific crash when the repr of a Future
is requested after the module has already been
garbage-collected.
* gh-106905: Use per AST-parser state rather than global state to
track recursion depth within the AST parser to prevent potential
race condition due to simultaneous parsing.
* The issue primarily showed up in 3.11 by multithreaded users of
ast.parse(). In 3.12 a change to when garbage collection can be
triggered prevented the race condition from occurring.
* gh-112716: Fix SystemError in the import statement and in
__reduce__() methods of builtin types when __builtins__ is not a
