Core and Builtins
-----------------
+- Issue #24802: Avoid buffer overreads when int(), float(), compile(), exec()
+ and eval() are passed bytes-like objects. These objects are not
+ necessarily terminated by a null byte, but the functions assumed they were.
+
- Issue #24726: Fixed a crash and leaking NULL in repr() of OrderedDict that
was mutated by direct calls of dict methods.
