What it is

🚨 A sneaky flaw in the Cython implementation could let malicious data slip right through! Imagine a postal worker who delivers packages without checking the sender’s address—some shady parcels might just end up on your doorstep! An attacker could craft malicious data that might exploit this flaw, potentially compromising your application’s integrity. It’s like leaving the door ajar for unwanted guests; they might not come in today, but you don’t want to take that chance!

Put simply
