Bug description:
On a free-threaded build, UnicodeDecodeError.__str__ reads the start and end members with plain (non-atomic) loads, while assigning to exc.start / exc.end goes through PyMember_SetOne, which does an atomic store. So calling str(exc) on a shared UnicodeDecodeError concurrently with setting its start/end is a data race on those Py_ssize_t members.
start and end are exposed as Py_T_PYSSIZET members:

Plain read in UnicodeDecodeError_str:

Reproducer:
from threading import Thread
shared_exc = UnicodeDecodeError('utf-8', b'\xff\xfe\xfa', 1, 2, 'invalid start byte')
def chain1_thread():
for i in range(20000):
try:
shared_exc.start = i % 3
except Exception:
pass
def chain2_thread():
for _ in range(20000):
try:
str(shared_exc)
except Exception:
pass
N_C1 = 4
N_C2 = 8
threads = [Thread(target=chain1_thread) for _ in range(N_C1)]
threads += [Thread(target=chain2_thread) for _ in range(N_C2)]
for t in threads: t.start()
for t in threads: t.join()

Línea de trabajo
Comienza en Objects/exceptions.c, en las declaraciones de miembros Py_T_PYSSIZET y UnicodeDecodeError_str; después, ejecuta el reproducer de threading proporcionado en una compilación free-threaded e inspecciona el informe de TSAN. El trabajo estará terminado cuando se haya corregido la race notificada y pasen las pruebas relevantes de CPython.
