What is the version of Python at Splunk 9.2?  We are currently at Splunk 9.1.0.2 and that version of Python (3.7.16) is already EOL.  In our environment, we need to be at a supported version of Python.

I have a fresh install of Splunk 9.2. I navigated to the /opt/splunk/bin folder where the python binaries are stored. Upon running ./python --version, I get:

Python 3.7.17

Thanks!  I'd say Splunk is way behind on updating its Python.
