New submission from Jason R. Coombs <jar...@jaraco.com>:

Originally reported to the Python Security Response Team, the 
EntryPoint.pattern demonstrates a potential 
[ReDoS](https://owasp.org/www-community/attacks/Regular_expression_Denial_of_Service_).

The issue has been patched and fix released with importlib_metadata 4.10.1. 
Let's get that fix incorporated into Python as well.
