How this page is checked
StackPrism asks OSV.dev which advisories affect exactly cryptography 45.0.2, merges duplicates filed under several ids, and ranks them with CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities list and FIRST EPSS. Release dates and deprecation come from deps.dev and PyPI. No AI writes this page: every sentence comes from that data, refreshed every few hours.
Last checked against PyPI, OSV.dev, deps.dev, CISA KEV and FIRST EPSS.
