Reproducible Example

Issue Description

Various code starting at

calls PyObject_GetAttrString, but never DECREFs the values returned from the function. This means that these references are leaked, and the objects are never deallocated even if pandas is unimported.

I am happy to prepare a PR to fix this, but I'm not entirely sure what the code in question is even trying to do; it simply accesses these attributes and does nothing with the result.

Found via python/cpython#98253.

Expected Behavior

No memory leaks
