Christian Heimes <li...@cheimes.de> added the comment: I don't see how the function is going to leak this information when both this patch and the patch in #14955 are applied. With http://bugs.python.org/file25801/secure-compare-fix-v2.patch ord() is no longer used and thus avoid the timing difference for integers > 256 (NSMALLPOSINTS is defined as 257, not 100).
