NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python38:3.8/python38-pyparsing package and not the python38:3.8/python38-pyparsing package as distributed by AlmaLinux.

psutil (aka python-psutil) through 5.6.5 can have a double free. This occurs because of refcount mishandling within a while or for loop that converts system data into a Python object.
