Python : Obsolete construct

Classification

OWASP ASVS
Malicious Code
CWE
CWE-477

Overview

The obsolete module is used. Perhaps, the code has not been developed for a long time.

In the development of the programming language, some constructions become deprecated. This may be due to improvements of the language or changes in agreements on how to conduct certain operations.

Deprecated methods are usually replaced by new ones that perform the same action more efficiently and securely.
