Upgrade vyper to version 0.4.0 or higher.
Overview
vyper is a Pythonic Smart Contract Language for the EVM.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') due to the build_IR function of the sqrt builtin not caching the argument to the stack, leading to potential double evaluation of the argument if it has side-effects. This could allow an attacker to manipulate the outcome of the sqrt function under certain conditions.
