At the moment, I use python 3.9.16 under Cygwin environment while my company IT alert me there is a severity risk for python 3.9.16 which need be upgraded to Python version 3.11.5 or newer asap.
I have tried to use Cygwin setup(setup-x86_64) to update the python version but it looks Cygwin only support python up to version 3.9.18 at the moment.
So I would like to check with experts when the Cygwin can support Python 3.11.5 or newer version?
Thank you very much.

Hi
Any update/advice for this topic? Or should I raise a ticket to other Cygwin Mailing Lists?
Thanks

Hi Zhike,
The Cygwin must be support these versions:
https://www.python.org/downloads/source/
Except unsupported < 3.8.x
Reference: https://devguide.python.org/versions/
Then, max of 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12.
Regards

There are no tickets and no other lists - this is the list for Cygwin issues.

It appears that this is not how python is maintained, as all python modules and
packages have to be rebuilt for each major version, so fixes are applied to each
supported major version e.g 3.9!
The web page below is more useful as it shows the current latest python release
with all known core vulnerabilities fixed for each major version:
https://maikuolan.github.io/Vulnerability-Charts/python.html
for a few other packages see:
https://maikuolan.github.io/Vulnerability-Charts/
https://github.com/Maikuolan/Vulnerability-Charts
so 3.{8,9}.19+ should fix all currently known security issues with 3.{8,9};
other releases are required for newer versions.
And 3.11.5 has issues, 3.11.9 is fixed: let your co IT know this!
Please note also that some vulnerabilities are specific to only certain
platforms and capabilities e.g. Linux:
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2022-42919
https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-42919
