Yes, it changes the global state of libcrypto. I consider the risk to other application slim to non-existing. Two cases are problematic: 1) an application relies on the fact that EVP_get_digestbyname("sha3_256") fails. 2) an application also uses EVP_add_digest_alias() but registers a different digest algorithm. Both cases seem highly unlikely to me. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40482> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
