NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python package and not the python package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.7 relevant fixed versions and status.

pip handles concatenated tar and ZIP files as ZIP files regardless of filename or whether a file is both a tar and ZIP file. This behavior could result in confusing installation behavior, such as installing "incorrect" files according to the filename of the archive. New behavior only proceeds with installation if the file identifies uniquely as a ZIP or tar archive, not as both.
