pycares is a Python module which provides an interface to c-ares. c-ares
is a C library that performs DNS requests and name resolutions
asynchronously. Prior to version 4.9.0, pycares is vulnerable to a
use-after-free condition that occurs when a Channel object is garbage
collected while DNS queries are still pending. This results in a fatal
Python error and interpreter crash. The vulnerability has been fixed in
pycares 4.9.0 by implementing a safe channel destruction mechanism.
