A security scan has identified python3-pip 9.0.3 on el8 as a security issue.. I don’t use python on the machine. But when I tried to remove it, I got an error because dnf is dependent on python..

There is no newer version of python3-pip for el8 that I can find.

does anyone have any suggestion on how i can resolve this. I was wondering if I could remove the python-platform and install a newer version like 3.8. This is on a docker image so i have room to experiment.

Thanks
