Summary
python-pip regression
Details

USN-5821-1 fixed a vulnerability in wheel and pip. Unfortunately, it was missing a commit to fix it properly in pip.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Original advisory details:

Sebastian Chnelik discovered that wheel incorrectly handled certain file names when validated against a regex expression. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service.
