I consider that it is a security vulneraibility and so should be fixed in all supported branches including 3.3 and 3.4.

If someone is blocked for a legit usecase, an old Python version can be used until we decide how to handle it.

I concur with you, I don't think that anyone uses filenames containing newlines on FTP. FTP protocol is text based and uses newlines as the command separator. I expect a lot of not fun issues if someone uses such filename on legit files.
