avoid possible vulnerabilities, the plistlib module no longer

Possible constant-time-defeating compiler optimisations were
discovered in the accumulator variable in hmac.compare_digest.

It was discovered that it might be possible to bypass some of the
protections implemented by the TLS handshake in the ssl.SSLSocket
class. For example, unauthenticated data might be read by a program
expecting data authenticated by client certificates.
For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version
3.7.3-2+deb10u6.
We recommend that you upgrade your python3.7 packages.
