• Max score is 1000. Note that the real score may have changed since the PR was raised.
• This PR was automatically created by Snyk using the credentials of a real user.
• Some vulnerabilities couldn't be fully fixed and so Snyk will still find them when the project is tested again. This may be because the vulnerability existed within more than one direct dependency, but not all of the affected dependencies could be upgraded.

This major version upgrade of cryptography introduces several breaking changes that require developer action.

Breaking Changes:

• Minimum RSA Key Size: The generate_private_key() function now enforces a minimum key size of 1024 bits for RSA keys. Attempts to generate smaller keys will fail. The library authors note that 2048-bits is the recommended secure size.
• Moved Ciphers: The CAST5, SEED, IDEA, and Blowfish ciphers have been moved to the new cryptography.hazmat.decrepit.ciphers module. These were deprecated in version 37.0.0 and removed from the main cipher module in version 45.0.0.
• Build from Source: For users who build the package from source against a custom OpenSSL library, the environment variables used for linking (CFLAGS, LDFLAGS, etc.) are no longer supported and have been replaced by a new configuration method.

Environment Changes:

• LibreSSL: Support for LibreSSL versions older than 3.8 has been dropped.
• OpenSSL: The pre-compiled wheels now bundle OpenSSL 3.3.1. Support for OpenSSL versions older than 1.1.1e has been removed.

Recommendation:

• Review any code using generate_private_key() to ensure it meets the new minimum key size requirement.
• Update import paths for any code still using the CAST5, SEED, IDEA, or Blowfish ciphers.
• Verify your build environment if you compile cryptography from source with a custom OpenSSL version.
