New submission from Vladimir Kerimov:

In the file _io\fileio.c in function 

static PyObject *
fileio_readall(fileio *self)

this code is incorrect and crashes the process of Python:

 if (_PyBytes_Resize(&result, newsize) < 0) {
                if (total == 0) {
                    Py_DECREF(result);
                    return NULL;
                }
                PyErr_Clear();
                break;
            }

In the call of _PyBytes_Resize there the result variable passed by reference 
and changes value to NULL-pointer when function fails and return < 0. So on the 
line Py_DECREF(result); the Python process crashes.
