Description

Requests is a HTTP library. Due to a URL parsing issue, Requests releases prior to 2.32.4 may leak .netrc credentials to third parties for specific maliciously-crafted URLs. Users should upgrade to version 2.32.4 to receive a fix. For older versions of Requests, use of the .netrc file can be disabled with `trust_env=False` on one's Requests Session.

Notes

mdeslaur

On focal and earlier, the python-pip package bundles requests binaries when built. After updating requests, a no-change rebuild of python-pip is required. On jammy and later, requests is bundled in the python-pip package and needs to be patched.
