I don't work on these sorts of codebases, and I don't use type hints or
static type checking. So I'm not really qualified to judge how bad /
widespread a problem this is. It's my hope that the greater Python core
dev / user community can ascertain how serious this is.
My main observation i
Python 3.7.10 and 3.6.13, the lastest security fix rollups for Python 3.7 and

Hi Michał,
I created https://python-security.readthedocs.io/ website to track
known Python vulnerabilities to help me checking if fixes are
backported to all supported Python branches. I'm maintaing this list
