There is no fix. A fix may break the backward compatibility. Is it really worth it for the last 3.4 release? > "XML vulnerabilities in Python" > https://bugs.python.org/issue17239 Bug inactive since 2015. I don't expect that anyone will step in next weeks with a wonderful solution to all XML issues. I suggest to ignore this one as well, this issue is as old as XML support in Python and I am not aware of any victim of these issues. Obviously, it would be "nice" to see a fix for these issues but it seems like core devs are more interested to work on other topics and other security issues. > "fflush called on pointer to potentially closed file" (Windows only) > https://bugs.python.org/issue19050 It seems like two core devs are opposed to fix this issue. -- There are open security issues on the HTTP server and urllib. I am more concerned by these issues, but it's hard to fix them, there is a risk of introducing regressions. Victor
