[issue14532] multiprocessing module performs a time-dependent hmac comparison

[Jon Oberheide]

Jon Oberheide <jon at oberheide.org> added the comment:

Ah yeah, I suppose it's not be exploitable in this case due to the challenge nonce.

However, it might still be a good thing to fix for to set an example for other hmac module users (internal or external) that might not have the same situation.
