Bandit throwing error on Python 3.7

Describe the bug

Bandit throwing error on Python 3.7.X

When I try to run Bandit (bandit==1.7.4) using Python version 3.7.X , I get an error "Error: Process completed with exit code 1." Running the scanner on Python 3.8 and above works just fine but not 3.7. We know that the latest bandit no longer supported python 3.6 and below.

Error Message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.7.9/x64/lib/python3.7/site-packages/stevedore/_cache.py", line 159, in _get_data_for_path
    with open(filename, 'r') as f:

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Hi @muaz-jasman, this seems to be the same issue as reported in #951. I already opened a pull request #952 to fix this.

Problem fixed in stevedore 3.5.2 @muaz-jasman please close this issue if you don't reproduce it with Python 3.7 + stevedore 3.5.2.
