[New-bugs-announce] [issue39497] Unused variable script_str in pysqlite_cursor_executescript

[Alex Henrie]

New submission from Alex Henrie <alexhenrie24 at gmail.com>:

The function pysqlite_cursor_executescript defines a variable called script_str, initializes it to NULL, and calls Py_XDECREF on it. However, this variable has been unused since August 2007: https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/6d21456137836b8acd551cf6a51999ad4ff10a91#diff-26f74db3527991715b482a5ed2603870L752
