Comment (by Douglas R. Reno):

 An additional CVE was fixed in this release - CVE-2026-3446. That follows
 https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/145267, the advisory from upstream
 is:

 {{{
 When calling base64.b64decode() or related functions the decoding process
 would stop
 after encountering the first padded quad regardless of whether there was
 more
 information to be processed. This can lead to data being accepted which
 may be processed
 differently by other implementations. Use "strict=True" to enable stricter
 processing of
 base64 data.

 Please see the linked CVE ID for the latest information on affected
 versions:
