description

CPython 3.14.10 has a regression in hashlib FIPS-algorithm enforcement when it uses OpenSSL in FIPS mode. The available evidence does not establish a specific attacker action or impact, but affected deployments may not enforce FIPS algorithm restrictions as intended.

mitigation

Move affected systems off CPython 3.14.10 to a supported CPython version other than 3.14.10. Prioritize hosts configured to use OpenSSL in FIPS mode.

fixed in 3.14.11
