Yes, it's like pickle, but it is not like you think. The pickle module has a similar security disclaimer, https://docs.python.org/dev/library/pickle.html . We might agree to fix segfaults in unpickler code if the fix is simple and does not cause backwards compatibility or performance regressions. It's more likely that we decide against it because the pickle format is inherently insecure and not designed to handle untrusted data. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41208> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
