The threads and cpus parameters in parse_events and parse_metrics are parsed with the 'O' format specifier but blindly casted in the C extension. If a user passes an invalid object type, this leads to memory corruption when dereferencing the expected struct. Add runtime PyObject_TypeCheck validations in python.c to safely raise a TypeError if an invalid object is passed.
