    I've created a library that use t-strings to prevent shell injection that even works on Windows. It's written in Rust. https://github.com/aspizu/tshu

        $ uv run --with tshu python -m asyncio
        >>> from tshu import sh
        >>> username = "aspizu; rm -rf /"
        >>> await sh(t"echo {username}")
        aspizu; rm -rf /

    New features

    * PEP 779: Free-threaded Python is officially supported

    * PEP 649: The evaluation of annotations is now deferred, improving the semantics of using annotations.

    * PEP 750: Template string literals (t-strings) for custom string processing, using the familiar syntax of f-strings.

    * PEP 734: Multiple interpreters in the stdlib.

    * PEP 784: A new module compression.zstd providing support for the Zstandard compression algorithm.

    * PEP 758: except and except* expressions may now omit the brackets.

    Syntax highlighting in PyREPL, and support for color in unittest, argparse, json and calendar CLIs.

    * PEP 768: A zero-overhead external debugger interface for CPython.

    UUID versions 6-8 are now supported by the uuid module, and generation of versions 3-5 are up to 40% faster.

    * PEP 765: Disallow return/break/continue that exit a finally block.

    * PEP 741: An improved C API for configuring Python.

    A new type of interpreter. For certain newer compilers, this interpreter provides significantly better performance. Opt-in for now, requires building from source.

    Improved error messages.

    Builtin implementation of HMAC with formally verified code from the HACL* project.

    A new command-line interface to inspect running Python processes using asynchronous tasks.

    The pdb module now supports remote attaching to a running Python process.

    No GIL, and JIT enabled (even if experimental), kudos to the team.
