A comment on Time to Upgrade Your Python: TLS v1.2 Will Soon Be Mandatory. Parent comment
OpenSSL got TLSv1.2 support in version 1.0.1. Any older version of OpenSSL doesn't support TLSv1.2. That affects a number of platforms:
- the system Python on macOS, which link against the system OpenSSL (an anaemic 0.9.8zh)
- most of the older (pre-3.6) python.org releases on macOS, which have the same problem
- any Python on a Linux operating system with an older OpenSSL
So the backport needed is to backport a newer OpenSSL to the platform.
