[New-bugs-announce] [issue46074] deepfreeze should rehash all strings upon reset

[Guido van Rossum]

New submission from Guido van Rossum <guido at python.org>:

In https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/30096#discussion_r768802144 it is pointed out that the hash seed can be changed if the interpreter is reset.

To guard against this we need to force (re)calculation of all hash seeds in the generated code when the corresponding code object is retrieved. This can be done by adding extra code to the `_Py_get_<name>_toplevel()` functions. (Strings that are shared between code objects will have to be rehashed repeatedly -- no big deal.)
