Is this a security risk with Python too?

[Roman Suzi]

Among numerous security alerts, I saw the following:

------------
Package: tcl/tk                
Date: 08-10-2002

Description:
The tcl/tk package searched for its libraries in the current working
directory before other directories, which could allow local users to
execute arbitrary code by writing Trojan horse library that is under
a user-controlled directory.
------------

Is this true for Python too (in some cases)?

Sincerely yours, Roman Suzi
