The correct fix is to write a new parser just for this function. See for example uint_converter() in Modules/zlibmodule.c. I would prefer to add such new parser to Python/getargs.c directly, but I was not motivated when I fixed #18294 (integer overflow in the zlib module). ---------- nosy: +haypo _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17919> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
