+* Converting between :class:`int` and :class:`str` in bases other than 2
+  (binary), 4, 8 (octal), 16 (hexadecimal), or 32 such as base 10 (decimal)
+  now raises a :exc:`ValueError` if the number of digits in string form is
+  above a limit to avoid potential denial of service attacks due to the
+  algorithmic complexity. This is a mitigation for `CVE-2020-10735
+  <https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2020-10735>`_.
+  This limit can be configured or disabled by environment variable, command
+  line flag, or :mod:`sys` APIs. See the :ref:`integer string conversion
+  length limitation <int_max_str_digits>` documentation.  The default limit
+  is 4300 digits in string form.
