Issue 28075 extended the os.stat() and os.lstat() implementation to query basic stat informatiom from the parent directory if opening the file fails with ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED. This change first became available in Python 3.5.3. 

Previously it was only querying the parent directory for the case of ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION, which is unlikely since the open doesn't request and data access that requires sharing. It does handle one case that I know of. NTFS refuses to share even metadata access for a system paging file such as "C:\pagefile.sys".
