I am looking for one or two experts to discuss with me how Python concurrency
features fit together, and possible vulnerabilities associated with that.
TR 24772 lists 5 vulnerabilities associated with
1. activating threads, tasks or pico-threads
2. Directed termination of threads, tasks or pico-threads
3. Premature termination of threads, tasks or pico-threads
4. Concurrent access to data shared between threads, tasks or pico-threads,
and
5. Lock protocol errors for concurrent entities
I need to document how these appear (or don’t appear) in Python. The writeups
would possibly swamp this email reflector, so I am looking for a small number
of people to review these sections of our language-independent document and
discuss with me how these are handled in Python.
I have a good background in these issues, but no relevant experience with
Python.
Please contact me at stephen.mich...@maurya.on.ca
<mailto:stephen.mich...@maurya.on.ca> to respond directly.
Thank you
