On Windows a directory returned by tempfile.mkdtemp() would not always have permissions set to restrict reading and writing to the temporary directory by other users, instead usually inheriting the correct permissions from the default location. Alternate configurations or users without a profile directory may not have the intended permissions. If you’re not using Windows or haven’t changed the temporary directory location then you aren’t affected by this vulnerability. On other platforms the returned directory is consistently readable and writable only by the current user. This issue was caused by Python not supporting Unix permissions on Windows. The fix adds support for Unix “700” for the mkdir function on Windows which is used by mkdtemp() to ensure the newly created directory has the proper permissions.

    **Note:** The release you're looking at is Python 3.11.10, a **security bugfix release** for the legacy     3.11 series. *Python 3.12* is now the latest feature release series of Python 3.

    Security content in this release
    --------------------------------

    -   [gh-123067](https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/123067): Fix quadratic complexity in parsing     ``-quoted cookie values with backslashes by     [`http.cookies`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/http.cookies.html#module-http.cookies). Fixes     CVE-2024-7592.
    -   [gh-113171](https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/113171): Fixed various false positives and false     negatives in IPv4Address.is_private, IPv4Address.is_global, IPv6Address.is_private, IPv6Address.is_global.
    Fixes CVE-2024-4032.
    -   [gh-67693](https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/67693): Fix     [`urllib.parse.urlunparse()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/urllib.parse.html#urllib.parse.urlunparse)     and     [`urllib.parse.urlunsplit()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/urllib.parse.html#urllib.parse.urlunsplit)     for URIs with path starting with multiple slashes and no authority. Fixes CVE-2015-2104.
    -   [gh-121957](https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/121957): Fixed missing audit events around     interactive use of Python, now also properly firing for `python -i`, as well as for `python -m asyncio`.

    -   [gh-121285](https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/121285): Remove backtracking from tarfile header     parsing for `hdrcharset`, PAX, and GNU sparse headers. That's CVE-2024-6232.
