There’s security content in the releases, let’s dive right in.
- gh-108310: Fixed an issue where instances of
ssl.SSLSocket
were vulnerable to a bypass of the TLS handshake and included
protections (like certificate verification) and treating sent
unencrypted data as if it were post-handshake TLS encrypted data.
Security issue reported as CVE-2023-40217 1 by Aapo Oksman. Patch by Gregory P. Smith.
Upgrading is highly recommended to all users of affected versions.

This release was held up somewhat by the resolution of this CVE,
which is why it includes a whopping 328 new commits since 3.11.4

is a fix for CVE-2023-41105 which affected Python 3.11.0 – 3.11.4. See gh-106242 for details.
There are also some fixes for crashes, check out the change log to see all information.
