Hi,

This probably affects a large number of python ports which won't build
due to the vulnerability in the build dependency.

Any plans on how to proceed?

Best
Michael

+         <p>setuptools is a package that allows users to download,
build,
+         install, upgrade, and uninstall Python packages. A path
traversal
+         vulnerability in `PackageIndex` is present in setuptools
prior to
+         version 78.1.1. An attacker would be allowed to write files
to

of the
+         process running the Python code, which could escalate to
remote
+         code execution depending on the context.</p>
