"It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2-2025-2799 advisory.

    The ipaddress module contained incorrect information about whether certain IPv4 and IPv6 addresses were
    designated as globally reachable or private. This affected the is_private and is_global properties of
    the ipaddress.IPv4Address, ipaddress.IPv4Network, ipaddress.IPv6Address, and ipaddress.IPv6Network
    classes, where values wouldn't be returned in accordance with the latest information from the IANA
    Special-Purpose Address Registries.

    CPython 3.12.4 and 3.13.0a6 contain updated information from these registries and thus have the intended
    behavior. (CVE-2024-4032)
