Please find attached the email I have sent them. I'm reporting this to oss-security so that no downstream distributors accidentally ship the wrong 3.5.8. I have also reported it directly to FreeBSD at https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=241586 as they are the only distribution I could think of that still actually ship vanilla Python 3.5.
