  • v2.7.0 Changes

    May 03, 2015

    🚀 This is the first release that follows our new release process. For 👀 more, see our 📚 documentation.

    🛠 Bugfixes

    • ⚡️ Updated urllib3 to 1.10.4, resolving several bugs involving chunked transfer encoding and response framing.

  • v2.6.2 Changes

    April 23, 2015

    🛠 Bugfixes

    • Fix regression where compressed data that was sent as chunked data was not properly decompressed. (#2561)

  • v2.6.1 Changes

    April 22, 2015

    🛠 Bugfixes

    • 🚚 Remove VendorAlias import machinery introduced in v2.5.2.
    • Simplify the PreparedRequest.prepare API: We no longer require the user to pass an empty list to the hooks keyword argument. (c.f. #2552)
    • Resolve redirects now receives and forwards all of the original arguments to the adapter. (#2503)
    • Handle UnicodeDecodeErrors when trying to deal with a unicode URL that cannot be encoded in ASCII. (#2540)
    • 📜 Populate the parsed path of the URI field when performing Digest Authentication. (#2426)
    • Copy a PreparedRequest's CookieJar more reliably when it is not an instance of RequestsCookieJar. (#2527)

  • v2.6.0 Changes

    March 14, 2015

    🛠 Bugfixes

    • CVE-2015-2296: Fix handling of cookies on redirect. Previously a cookie without a host value set would use the hostname for the redirected URL exposing requests users to session fixation attacks and potentially cookie stealing. This was disclosed privately by Matthew Daley of BugFuzz. This affects all versions of requests from v2.1.0 to v2.5.3 (inclusive on both ends).
    • Fix error when requests is an install_requires dependency and python setup.py test is run. (#2462)
    • Fix error when urllib3 is unbundled and requests continues to use the vendored import location.
    • 🛠 Include fixes to urllib3's header handling.
    • Requests' handling of unvendored dependencies is now more restrictive.

    🔋 Features and Improvements

    • 👍 Support bytearrays when passed as parameters in the files argument. (#2468)
    • Avoid data duplication when creating a request with str, bytes, or bytearray input to the files argument.

  • v2.5.3 Changes

    February 24, 2015

    🛠 Bugfixes

  • v2.5.2 Changes

    February 23, 2015

    🔋 Features and Improvements

    🛠 Bugfixes

    • 🚚 Copy pip's import machinery. When downstream redistributors remove requests.packages.urllib3 the import machinery will continue to let those same symbols work. Example usage in requests' documentation and 3rd-party libraries relying on the vendored copies of urllib3 will work without having to fallback to the system urllib3.
    • Attempt to quote parts of the URL on redirect if unquoting and then quoting fails. (#2356)
    • Fix filename type check for multipart form-data uploads. (#2411)
    • Properly handle the case where a server issuing digest authentication challenges provides both auth and auth-int qop-values. (#2408)
    • Fix a socket leak. (shazow/urllib3#549)
    • Fix multiple Set-Cookie headers properly. (shazow/urllib3#534)
    • Disable the built-in hostname verification. (shazow/urllib3#526)
    • Fix the behaviour of decoding an exhausted stream. (shazow/urllib3#535)

    • ⚡️ Pulled in an updated cacert.pem.
    • 0️⃣ Drop RC4 from the default cipher list. (shazow/urllib3#551)
