Double that, I've googled and did not find anything. Also it is not clear, since vulnerability can be only for a particular executable that does something with a file, not the file itslef. I've heard some arguments aginst tabs also, but it turned out that most of them are even not real. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
