Florian Bruhin <python.org at the-compiler.org> added the comment:

I wonder if I should request a CVE for this as well? Just to make sure the word gets out to distributions/organizations/etc. running the Python testsuite, given that we can't be sure it which contexts this happens (and as it could be exploited by e.g. spoofing a WiFi network or so).
