Release Notes

urllib3/urllib3 (urllib3)

v2.6.2

Compare Source

==================

  • Fixed HTTPResponse.read_chunked() to properly handle leftover data in
    the decoder's buffer when reading compressed chunked responses.
    (#&#8203;3734 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/3734>__)

v2.6.1

Compare Source

==================

  • Restore previously removed HTTPResponse.getheaders() and
    HTTPResponse.getheader() methods.
    (#&#8203;3731 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/3731>__)

v2.6.0

Compare Source

==================

Security

  • Fixed a security issue where streaming API could improperly handle highly
    compressed HTTP content ("decompression bombs") leading to excessive resource
    consumption even when a small amount of data was requested. Reading small
    chunks of compressed data is safer and much more efficient now.
    (GHSA-2xpw-w6gg-jr37 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/security/advisories/GHSA-2xpw-w6gg-jr37>__)
  • Fixed a security issue where an attacker could compose an HTTP response with
    virtually unlimited links in the Content-Encoding header, potentially
    leading to a denial of service (DoS) attack by exhausting system resources
    during decoding. The number of allowed chained encodings is now limited to 5.

.. caution::

  • If urllib3 is not installed with the optional urllib3[brotli] extra, but
    your environment contains a Brotli/brotlicffi/brotlipy package anyway, make
    sure to upgrade it to at least Brotli 1.2.0 or brotlicffi 1.2.0.0 to
    benefit from the security fixes and avoid warnings. Prefer using
    urllib3[brotli] to install a compatible Brotli package automatically.

  • If you use custom decompressors, please make sure to update them to
    respect the changed API of urllib3.response.ContentDecoder.

Features

Removals

    Removed the HTTPResponse.getheader(name, default) method in favor of HTTPResponse.headers.get(name, default). (#&#8203;3622 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/3622>__)

    for the retries parameter. (#&#8203;3649 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/3649>__)
  • Fixed HTTPConnectionPool when used in Emscripten with no explicit port. (#&#8203;3664 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/3664>__)
