+.. section: Security
+
+Fixed an issue where instances of :class:`ssl.SSLSocket` were vulnerable to
+a bypass of the TLS handshake and included protections (like certificate
+verification) and treating sent unencrypted data as if it were
+post-handshake TLS encrypted data.  Security issue reported as
+`CVE-2023-40217
+<https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2023-40217>`_ by Aapo
+Oksman. Patch by Gregory P. Smith.

+
+PEP 669 specifies that ``sys.monitoring.register_callback`` will generate an
+audit event. Pre-releases of Python 3.12 did not generate the audit event.
+This is now fixed.

+Fix :meth:`multiprocessing.synchronize.SemLock.__setstate__` to properly
+initialize :attr:`multiprocessing.synchronize.SemLock._is_fork_ctx`. This
+fixes a regression when passing a SemLock accross nested processes.
+
+Rename :attr:`multiprocessing.synchronize.SemLock.is_fork_ctx` to
+:attr:`multiprocessing.synchronize.SemLock._is_fork_ctx` to avoid exposing
+it as public API.
