[New-bugs-announce] [issue20244] Possible resources leak in tarfile.open()

[Serhiy Storchaka]

New submission from Serhiy Storchaka:

There are possible opened file leaks when unexpected error is occurred in tarfile.open for bzip2- or xz-compressed files (and gzip2-compressed in 2.7). Here is a patch. Unfortunately I have no tests.
