PLY 3.11 contains the picklefile parameter described by
CVE-2025-56005, but exploitation requires an application to
explicitly pass an attacker-controlled pickle file to yacc().

No OE-Core consumer uses this parameter. Ubuntu ignores the issue for
the same reason [1], and NVD records the CVE as disputed [2].
