NumPy 1.16.3 Release Notes
==========================
The NumPy 1.16.3 release fixes bugs reported against the 1.16.2 release, and
also backports several enhancements from master that seem appropriate for a
release series that is the last to support Python 2.7. The wheels on PyPI are
linked with OpenBLAS v0.3.4+, which should fix the known threading issues
found in previous OpenBLAS versions.
Downstream developers building this release should use Cython >= 0.29.2 and,
if using OpenBLAS, OpenBLAS > v0.3.4.
The most noticeable change in this release is that unpickling object arrays
when loading ``*.npy`` or ``*.npz`` files now requires an explicit opt-in.
This backwards incompatible change was made in response to
`CVE-2019-6446 <https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2019-6446>`_.
Compatibility notes
===================
Unpickling while loading requires explicit opt-in
-------------------------------------------------
The functions ``np.load``, and ``np.lib.format.read_array`` take an
`allow_pickle` keyword which now defaults to ``False`` in response to
`CVE-2019-6446 <https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2019-6446>`_.
Improvements
============
Covariance in `random.mvnormal` cast to double
----------------------------------------------
This should make the tolerance used when checking the singular values of the
covariance matrix more meaningful.
Changes
=======
``__array_interface__`` offset now works as documented
------------------------------------------------------
The interface may use an ``offset`` value that was previously mistakenly
ignored.
