[issue21015] support SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto on newer OpenSSLs

Also Donald, welcome to the I broke (some of) the buildbots club, although you did come up with something more exotic than the somewhat traditional I forgot to 'hg add' a new file. Your next challenge is to break them when a release is imminent and you need to abjectly apologise to a release manager while you try to fix it or decide to revert it :) You're also getting to see first hand why I decided to write PEP 462 to start down the path of improving our core development workflows :) -- keywords: +buildbot nosy: +ncoghlan ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21015 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue20906] Issues in Unicode HOWTO
Graham Wideman added the comment: @Andre: _I_ know more or less the explanations behind all this. I am just putting it forward as an example which touches several concepts which are needed to explain it, and that a programmer might reason with to change a program (or the environment) to produce some output (instead of an exception), and possibly even the intended output. For example, behind the brief explanation you provide, here are some of the related concepts: 1. print(s) sends output to stdout, which sends data to windows console (cmd.exe). 2. In the process, the output function that print -- stdout invokes attempts to encode s according to the encoding that the destination, cmd.exe reports that it expects. 3. On Windows (in English, or perhaps it's US locale), cmd.exe defaults to expecting encoding cp437. 4. cp437 is an encoding containing only 256 characters. Many Unicode code points obviously have no corresponding character in cp437. 5. The encoding process used by print() is set to exception on characters that have no mapping to the encoding wanted by stdout. 6. Consequently, print() throws an exception on code points outside of those representable in cp437. Based on that, there are a number of moves the programmer might make, with varying results... possibly involving: -- s.encode([various choices of options here]) -- s_as_bytes -- print(s_as_bytes) (noting that 'Hello ' + s_as_bytes doesn't work) -- Or maybe ascii(s) -- Or possibly sys.stdout.buffer.write() -- Pros and cons of the above, which require careful tracking of what the resulting strings or byte sequences really mean at each juncture. -- cmd.exe chcp 65001 -- so print(unicode) won't exception, but still many chars will show as [?] -- various font choices in cmd.exe which might be able to show the needed graphemes. -- Automatic font substitution that occurs in some contexts when the selected font doesn't contain a requested code point and its grapheme. ... and probably more concepts that I've missed. -- Graham -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue20906 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue20906] Issues in Unicode HOWTO
Martin v. Löwis added the comment: 4. Many Internet standards are defined in terms of textual data I believe the author was thinking of the old TCP-based protocols (ftp, smtp, RFC 822, HTTP), which have their commands/messages as ASCII-strings, with a variable-length records (often terminated by line end). I think bringing this up as an argument against UTF-32 somewhat flawed, for two reasons: 1. Historically, many of these protocols restricted themselves to pure ASCII, so using UTF-8 is as much a protocol violation as is using UTF-32. 2. The tricky part in this protocols is often not the risk of embedding NUL, but embedding CRLF (as 0D 0A might well appear in a character, a.g. MALAYALAM LETTER UU) OTOH, it is a fact that several of these protocols got revised to support Unicode, and often re-interpreting the data as UTF-8 (with MIME being the notable exception that actually allows for UTF-32 on the wire if somebody choses to). -- nosy: +loewis ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue20906 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue21013] server-specific SSL context configuration
Donald Stufft added the comment: I'll do that :) To be clear about this patch, it raises the upper bounds of security by enabling TLS 1.1, and 1.2 as well as the single use for (EC)DH and preferring the server ciphers. However it also lowers the lower bounds of security and includes SSLv3 which has some issues (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security#SSL_3.0). However there exists clients who only support SSL3 (The primary one I'm aware of is IE6 on Windows XP). We can add OP_NO_SSLv3 to the default context to prevent SSL3 but it's sort of a situational thing. If you're doing something where you need SSL3 clients you don't want OP_NO_SSLv3. So I guess the question is, do we want to be more secure by default and *not* lower the lower bounds of security and require people to add context.options ~ssl.OP_NO_SSLv3 if they want to support SSLv3 connections? -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21013 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue21013] server-specific SSL context configuration
Donald Stufft added the comment: That's not entirely true unfortunately :( There are downgrade attacks that work all the way up through TLS 1.2. These are not strictly a problem of the protocol specs but instead of the implementations. See: https://crypto.stackexchange.com/questions/10493/why-is-tls-susceptible-to-protocol-downgrade-attacks The general gist of it is some servers/firewalls/etc have buggy implementations that cause a TLS1.0+ handshake to fail and some clients (browsers being a big one) decided to handle this by restarting the connection with SSL3.0 instead of TLS1.0+. So thus it is possible to effectively downgrade a client, even one that supports TLS1.2. It is not however possible to do it within a single connection. The version selection process should not be considered a security feature but should instead be looked at as a way to opportunistically add newer features. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21013 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue21013] server-specific SSL context configuration
Donald Stufft added the comment: To be clear though, a lot of TLS servers out there still have SSL3.0 enabled by default, primarily because of IE6 / XP. I'm on the fence about what the right answer is for create_default_context. From a strictly best practices for security sense of view you want to disable SSLv3 (and this matches what create_default_context did prior to my patch). Can we perhaps split the difference and disable SSL3.0 and document what the error looks like when you try to connect with SSL3.0 and how to re-enable it? -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21013 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue21026] Document sitecustomize.py problems with pythonw
New submission from Terry J. Reedy: In the first section of the doc for site.py, after After these path manipulations, an attempt is made to import a module named sitecustomize, which can perform arbitrary site-specific customizations. It is typically created by a system administrator in the site-packages directory. If this import fails with an ImportError exception, it is silently ignored. I propose to add (something like) If python is started without output streams available, as with pythonw on Windows (used by default to start Idle), attempted output from sitecustomize is ignored. Any exception other that ImportError causes a silent and perhaps mysterious failure of the process. This issue was stimulated by someone asking on python-list about print() outout appearing when starting the console interpreter but not when starting Idle (on Windows). I then tested the result of an excecption other than ImportError. At the console, nothing visible happens until a new prompt appears. C:\Programs\Python34pythonw -m idlelib.idle C:\Programs\Python34 If Idle is already running, the attempt to run a file with F5 gives a messages about not being able to connect to the subprocess (which silently failed). -- components: Library (Lib) keywords: patch messages: 214512 nosy: terry.reedy priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: Document sitecustomize.py problems with pythonw versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.4, Python 3.5 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21026 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue21027] difflib new cli interface
New submission from Claudiu.Popa: Hello! The attached patch proposes a new command line interface to difflib module. Currently, `python -m difflib` does nothing useful, it runs the doc suite for the difflib module. Right now, there are a couple of modules in the standard lib, which provides helpful cli interfaces. For instance, inspect for analyzing an object, compileall for compilation of Python files or json.tool for validating and pretty printing JSON. Also, in Tools/scripts/ there is a small utility called diff.py, which uses difflib to implement a simple diff like utility, but the following issue proposes its deprecation and I'll enumerate my reasons for this: - On Windows, py -3 -m difflib is easier to use. Yes, Tools/Scripts can be added to PATH, so that diff.py can be used there, but we can't do always that. I have at work a couple of machines where I can't modify the PATH due to user limitations. Having `py -3 -m difflib` as a handy diff tool is invaluable on such systems. - Continuing the same argument as above, you can't always install a proper diff tool, due to same limitations. Having a simple one builtin in the stdlib is more than useful! Also, you can't always use a versioning system, in order to use its diff feature. - Tools/Scripts/diff.py is not tested at all. - diff.py was added before the `-m` thingy came, now `-m difflib` is the more natural way and I hope to see even more modules providing it with useful cli interfaces, like compileall or inspect. Thanks in advance! -- components: Library (Lib) files: difflib_cli.patch keywords: patch messages: 214516 nosy: Claudiu.Popa priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: difflib new cli interface type: enhancement versions: Python 3.5 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file34571/difflib_cli.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21027 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue19264] subprocess.Popen doesn't support unicode on Windows
Martin v. Löwis added the comment: The issue is really that Terry had removed 2.7 from the list of affected versions, and added 3.4 instead. The original issue was reported against 2.7, where the observation that it uses CreateProcess is correct: http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/babb9479b79f/PC/_subprocess.c#l463 The OP's observation that this restricts the supported executable names to be ascii is incorrect. Instead, any string in the CP_ACP (ANSI) encoding of the system would work, which practically allows to access all directories on a typical installation. I'd close this as won't fix, except that I recall a recent discussion that lack of Unicode support in some API is considered a bug in 2.7.

A failing case is still needed. -- type: enhancement - behavior ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue19264 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue21028] ElementTree objects should support all the same methods are Element objects
New submission from Raymond Hettinger:
The inner objects are Elements which has a great deal of flexiblity (for
example, they can be iterated over directly). The outermost object is an
ElementTree which lacks those capabilities (it only supports findall).
For example in a catalog of books:
catalog = xml.etree.ElementTree.parse('books.xml')
# This succeeds
for book in catalog.findall('book'):
print(book.tag)
# This fails:
for book in catalog:
print(book.tag)
# But for inner elements, we have more options
book = catalog.find('bk101')
for subelement in book:
print(subelement.tag)
Here are the differences between the API for ElementTree and Element
In [9]: set(dir(book)) - set(dir(catalog))
Out[9]:
{'__delitem__',
'__getitem__',
'__len__',
'__nonzero__',
'__setitem__',
'_children',
'append',
'attrib',
'clear',
'copy',
'extend',
'get',
'getchildren',
'insert',
'items',
'itertext',
'keys',
'makeelement',
'remove',
'set',
'tag',
'tail',
'text'}
In [10]: set(dir(catalog)) - set(dir(book))
Out[10]: {'_root', '_setroot', 'getroot', 'parse', 'write', 'write_c14n'}
Note, the XML data model requires that the outermost element have some
capabilities that inner elements don't have (such as comments and processing
instructions). That said, the outer element shouldn't have fewer capabilities
that the inner elements.

[issue21029] IDLE mis-coloring print
New submission from Raymond Hettinger:
Sometimes, IDLE displays print in orange, identifying it as a keyword and
sometimes print is displayed in purple identifying it as a built-in
function.
print 'hello' # This print is orange
hello
for i in range(1):
print ('hello')# This print is purple
hello

[issue21030] pip usable only by administrators on Windows
