 Grimmauld (any/all) | binutils 2.45 has a few CVEs, though as we are still on 2.44 it is unclear whether we are affected (likely the answer is yes, but i didn't go look).
Patches seem to exist though, not sure whether they apply on 2.44 base though.

I don't want people to use this library in production environments...
It's a teaching tool, it's a testing tool, it's absolutely not an production grade implementation.
I maintain it to have support for ECDH and ECDSA in tlsfuzzer, which I need to be first and foremost portable. Security does not even enter a picture for that tool.
If you need enterprise grade implementation you should use pyca/cryptography.

 emily | are the users actually using it in security-sensitive contexts or is it just test/fuzzer stuff? | 21:21:55 |
| dotlambda | Lots of crypto coin-related packages seem to use it, I assume that's security-sensitive. Also duplicity, a backup tool. I'm currently looking at how home-assistant is using it | 21:25:51 |
 niklaskorz | home-assistant project chip only seems to use it for testing indeed | 21:28:47 |
