 > Fix CVE-2020-14343: A vulnerability was discovered in the PyYAML library
 > in versions before 5.4, where it is susceptible to arbitrary code
 > execution when it processes untrusted YAML files through the full_load
 > method or with the FullLoader loader. Applications that use the library
 > to process untrusted input may be vulnerable to this flaw. This flaw
 > allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system by abusing
 > the python/object/new constructor. This flaw is due to an incomplete fix
 > for CVE-2020-1747.

 > Update hash of LICENSE file (update in year:
