Removing CPython's Global Interpreter Lock (GIL) exposes native code to concurrency absent from ordinary C types. Mutation or re-entry can revoke a borrowed object, storage pointer, traversal state, or lease between acquisition and use while its owner remains alive, causing native memory errors and runtime-state corrup...
Static analysis of Python packages must recover both program structure and object flow across first-class functions, dynamic dispatch, implicit protocol calls, exceptions, closures, and module execution. Native CPython bytecode provides the executable lowering of these behaviors, but its instruction, call, stack, and e...
Python import does more than resolve dependencies: it executes code during module and package initialization.

Prior work studies package selection, malicious p...
