[Short description of non-trivial change.]
2.32.3 (2024-05-29)¶
Bugfixes - Fixed bug breaking the ability to specify custom SSLContexts in sub-classes of
HTTPAdapter. (#6716)
Fixed issue where Requests started failing to run on Python versions compiled without the ssl module. (#6724)
2.32.2 (2024-05-21)¶
Deprecations - To provide a more stable migration for custom HTTPAdapters impacted
by the CVE changes in 2.32.0, we’ve renamed _get_connection to a new public API, get_connection_with_tls_context. Existing custom HTTPAdapters will need to migrate their code to use this new API. get_connection is considered deprecated in all versions of Requests>=2.32.0.
A minimal (2-line) example has been provided in the linked PR to ease migration, but we strongly urge users to evaluate if their custom adapter is subject to the same issue described in CVE-2024-35195. (#6710)
2.32.1 (2024-05-20)¶
Bugfixes - Add missing test certs to the sdist distributed on PyPI.
2.32.0 (2024-05-20)¶
Security - Fixed an issue where setting verify=False on the first request from a
Session will cause subsequent requests to the _same origin_ to also ignore cert verification, regardless of the value of verify. (https://github.com/psf/requests/security/advisories/GHSA-9wx4-h78v-vm56)
Improvements - verify=True now reuses a global SSLContext which should improve
request time variance between first and subsequent requests. It should also minimize certificate load time on Windows systems when using a Python version built with OpenSSL 3.x. (#6667)
Requests now supports optional use of character detection (chardet or charset_normalizer) when repackaged or vendored. This enables pip and other projects to minimize their vendoring surface area. The Response.text() and apparent_encoding APIs will default to utf-8 if neither library is present. (#6702)
Bugfixes - Fixed bug in length detection where emoji length was incorrectly
calculated in the request content-length. (#6589)
Fixed deserialization bug in JSONDecodeError. (#6629)
Fixed bug where an extra leading / (path separator) could lead urllib3 to unnecessarily reparse the request URI. (#6644)
Deprecations
Requests has officially added support for CPython 3.12 (#6503)
Requests has officially added support for PyPy 3.9 and 3.10 (#6641)
Requests has officially dropped support for CPython 3.7 (#6642)
Requests has officially dropped support for PyPy 3.7 and 3.8 (#6641)
Documentation - Various typo fixes and doc improvements.
Packaging - Requests has started adopting some modern packaging practices.
The source files for the projects (formerly requests) is now located in src/requests in the Requests sdist. (#6506)
Starting in Requests 2.33.0, Requests will migrate to a PEP 517 build system using hatchling. This should not impact the average user, but extremely old versions of packaging utilities may have issues with the new packaging format.
2.31.0 (2023-05-22)¶
Security - Versions of Requests between v2.3.0 and v2.30.0 are vulnerable to potential
forwarding of Proxy-Authorization headers to destination servers when following HTTPS redirects.
When proxies are defined with user info (https://user:pass@proxy:8080), Requests will construct a Proxy-Authorization header that is attached to the request to authenticate with the proxy.
In cases where Requests receives a redirect response, it previously reattached the Proxy-Authorization header incorrectly, resulting in the value being sent through the tunneled connection to the destination server. Users who rely on defining their proxy credentials in the URL are strongly encouraged to upgrade to Requests 2.31.0+ to prevent unintentional leakage and rotate their proxy credentials once the change has been fully deployed.
Users who do not use a proxy or do not supply their proxy credentials through the user information portion of their proxy URL are not subject to this vulnerability.
Full details can be read in our [Github Security Advisory](https://github.com/psf/requests/security/advisories/GHSA-j8r2-6x86-q33q) and [CVE-2023-32681](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-32681).
2.30.0 (2023-05-03)¶
Dependencies - ⚠️ Added support for urllib3 2.0. ⚠️
This may contain minor breaking changes so we advise careful testing and reviewing https://urllib3.readthedocs.io/en/latest/v2-migration-guide.html prior to upgrading.
Users who wish to stay on urllib3 1.x can pin to urllib3<2.
2.29.0 (2023-04-26)¶
Improvements
Requests now defers chunked requests to the urllib3 implementation to improve standardization. (#6226)
Requests relaxes header component requirements to support bytes/str subclasses. (#6356)
2.28.2 (2023-01-12)¶
Dependencies
Requests now supports charset_normalizer 3.x. (#6261)
Bugfixes
Updated MissingSchema exception to suggest https scheme rather than http. (#6188)
2.28.1 (2022-06-29)¶
Improvements
Speed optimization in iter_content with transition to yield from. (#6170)
Dependencies
Added support for chardet 5.0.0 (#6179)
Added support for charset-normalizer 2.1.0 (#6169)
2.28.0 (2022-06-09)¶
Deprecations
⚠️ Requests has officially dropped support for Python 2.7. ⚠️ (#6091)
Requests has officially dropped support for Python 3.6 (including pypy3.6). (#6091)
Improvements
Wrap JSON parsing issues in Request’s JSONDecodeError for payloads without an encoding to make json() API consistent. (#6097)
Parse header components consistently, raising an InvalidHeader error in all invalid cases. (#6154)
Added provisional 3.11 support with current beta build. (#6155)
Requests got a makeover and we decided to paint it black. (#6095)
Bugfixes
Fixed bug where setting CURL_CA_BUNDLE to an empty string would disable cert verification. All Requests 2.x versions before 2.28.0 are affected. (#6074)
Fixed urllib3 exception leak, wrapping urllib3.exceptions.SSLError with requests.exceptions.SSLError for content and iter_content. (#6057)
Fixed issue where invalid Windows registry entries caused proxy resolution to raise an exception rather than ignoring the entry. (#6149)
Fixed issue where entire payload could be included in the error message for JSONDecodeError. (#6036)
2.27.1 (2022-01-05)¶
Bugfixes
Fixed parsing issue that resulted in the auth component being dropped from proxy URLs. (#6028)
2.27.0 (2022-01-03)¶
Improvements
Officially added support for Python 3.10. (#5928)
Added a requests.exceptions.JSONDecodeError to unify JSON exceptions between Python 2 and 3. This gets raised in the response.json() method, and is backwards compatible as it inherits from previously thrown exceptions. Can be caught from requests.exceptions.RequestException as well. (#5856)
Improved error text for misnamed InvalidSchema and MissingSchema exceptions. This is a temporary fix until exceptions can be renamed (Schema->Scheme). (#6017)
Improved proxy parsing for proxy URLs missing a scheme. This will address recent changes to urlparse in Python 3.9+. (#5917)
Bugfixes
Fixed defect in extract_zipped_paths which could result in an infinite loop for some paths. (#5851)
Fixed handling for AttributeError when calculating length of files obtained by Tarfile.extractfile(). (#5239)
Fixed urllib3 exception leak, wrapping urllib3.exceptions.InvalidHeader with requests.exceptions.InvalidHeader. (#5914)
Fixed bug where two Host headers were sent for chunked requests. (#5391)
Fixed regression in Requests 2.26.0 where Proxy-Authorization was incorrectly stripped from all requests sent with Session.send. (#5924)
Fixed performance regression in 2.26.0 for hosts with a large number of proxies available in the environment. (#5924)
Fixed idna exception leak, wrapping UnicodeError with requests.exceptions.InvalidURL for URLs with a leading dot (.) in the domain. (#5414)
Deprecations
Requests support for Python 2.7 and 3.6 will be ending in 2022. While we don’t have exact dates, Requests 2.27.x is likely to be the last release series providing support.
2.26.0 (2021-07-13)¶
Improvements
Requests now supports Brotli compression, if either the brotli or brotlicffi package is installed. (#5783)
Session.send now correctly resolves proxy configurations from both the Session and Request. Behavior now matches Session.request. (#5681)
Bugfixes
Fixed a race condition in zip extraction when using Requests in parallel from zip archive. (#5707)
Dependencies
Instead of chardet, use the MIT-licensed charset_normalizer for Python3 to remove license ambiguity for projects bundling requests. If chardet is already installed on your machine it will be used instead of charset_normalizer to keep backwards compatibility. (#5797)
You can also install chardet while installing requests by specifying [use_chardet_on_py3] extra as follows:
`shell pip install "requests[use_chardet_on_py3]" `
Python2 still depends upon the chardet module.
Requests now supports idna 3.x on Python 3. idna 2.x will continue to be used on Python 2 installations. (#5711)
Deprecations
The requests[security] extra has been converted to a no-op install. PyOpenSSL is no longer the recommended secure option for Requests. (#5867)
Requests has officially dropped support for Python 3.5. (#5867)
2.25.1 (2020-12-16)¶
Bugfixes
Requests now treats application/json as utf8 by default. Resolving inconsistencies between r.text and r.json output. (#5673)
Dependencies
Requests now supports chardet v4.x.
2.25.0 (2020-11-11)¶
Improvements
Added support for NETRC environment variable. (#5643)
Dependencies
Requests now supports urllib3 v1.26.
Deprecations
Requests v2.25.x will be the last release series with support for Python 3.5.
The requests[security] extra is officially deprecated and will be removed in Requests v2.26.0.
2.24.0 (2020-06-17)¶
Improvements
pyOpenSSL TLS implementation is now only used if Python either doesn’t have an ssl module or doesn’t support SNI. Previously pyOpenSSL was unconditionally used if available. This applies even if pyOpenSSL is installed via the requests[security] extra (#5443)
Redirect resolution should now only occur when allow_redirects is True. (#5492)
No longer perform unnecessary Content-Length calculation for requests that won’t use it. (#5496)
2.23.0 (2020-02-19)¶
Improvements
Remove defunct reference to prefetch in Session __attrs__ (#5110)
Bugfixes
Requests no longer outputs password in basic auth usage warning. (#5099)
Dependencies
Pinning for chardet and idna now uses major version instead of minor. This hopefully reduces the need for releases every time a dependency is updated.
2.22.0 (2019-05-15)¶
Dependencies
Requests now supports urllib3 v1.25.2. (note: 1.25.0 and 1.25.1 are incompatible)
Deprecations
Requests has officially stopped support for Python 3.4.
2.21.0 (2018-12-10)¶
Dependencies
Requests now supports idna v2.8.
2.20.1 (2018-11-08)¶
Bugfixes
Fixed bug with unintended Authorization header stripping for redirects using default ports (http/80, https/443).
2.20.0 (2018-10-18)¶
Bugfixes
Content-Type header parsing is now case-insensitive (e.g. charset=utf8 v Charset=utf8).
Fixed exception leak where certain redirect urls would raise uncaught urllib3 exceptions.
Requests removes Authorization header from requests redirected from https to http on the same hostname. (CVE-2018-18074)
should_bypass_proxies now handles URIs without hostnames (e.g. files).
Dependencies
Requests now supports urllib3 v1.24.
Deprecations
Requests has officially stopped support for Python 2.6.
2.19.1 (2018-06-14)¶
Bugfixes
Fixed issue where status_codes.py’s init function failed trying to append to a __doc__ value of None.
2.19.0 (2018-06-12)¶
Improvements
Warn user about possible slowdown when using cryptography version < 1.3.4
Check for invalid host in proxy URL, before forwarding request to adapter.
Fragments are now properly maintained across redirects. (RFC7231 7.1.2)
Removed use of cgi module to expedite library load time.
Added support for SHA-256 and SHA-512 digest auth algorithms.
Minor performance improvement to Request.content.
Migrate to using collections.abc for 3.7 compatibility.
Bugfixes
Parsing empty Link headers with parse_header_links() no longer return one bogus entry.
Fixed issue where loading the default certificate bundle from a zip archive would raise an IOError.
Fixed issue with unexpected ImportError on windows system which do not support winreg module.
DNS resolution in proxy bypass no longer includes the username and password in the request. This also fixes the issue of DNS queries failing on macOS.
Properly normalize adapter prefixes for url comparison.
Passing None as a file pointer to the files param no longer raises an exception.
Calling copy on a RequestsCookieJar will now preserve the cookie policy correctly.
Dependencies
We now support idna v2.7.
We now support urllib3 v1.23.
2.18.4 (2017-08-15)¶
Improvements
Error messages for invalid headers now include the header name for easier debugging
Dependencies
We now support idna v2.6.
2.18.3 (2017-08-02)¶
Improvements
Running $ python -m requests.help now includes the installed version of idna.
Bugfixes
Fixed issue where Requests would raise ConnectionError instead of SSLError when encountering SSL problems when using urllib3 v1.22.
2.18.2 (2017-07-25)¶
Bugfixes
requests.help no longer fails on Python 2.6 due to the absence of ssl.OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER.
Dependencies
We now support urllib3 v1.22.
2.18.1 (2017-06-14)¶
Bugfixes
Fix an error in the packaging whereby the *.whl contained incorrect data that regressed the fix in v2.17.3.
2.18.0 (2017-06-14)¶
Improvements
Response is now a context manager, so can be used directly in a with statement without first having to be wrapped by contextlib.closing().
Bugfixes
Resolve installation failure if multiprocessing is not available
Resolve tests crash if multiprocessing is not able to determine the number of CPU cores
Resolve error swallowing in utils set_environ generator
2.17.3 (2017-05-29)¶
Improvements
Improved packages namespace identity support, for monkeypatching libraries.
2.17.2 (2017-05-29)¶
Improvements
Improved packages namespace identity support, for monkeypatching libraries.
2.17.1 (2017-05-29)¶
Improvements
Improved packages namespace identity support, for monkeypatching libraries.
2.17.0 (2017-05-29)¶
Improvements
Removal of the 301 redirect cache. This improves thread-safety.
2.16.5 (2017-05-28)¶
Improvements to $ python -m requests.help.
2.16.4 (2017-05-27)¶
Introduction of the $ python -m requests.help command, for debugging with maintainers!
2.16.3 (2017-05-27)¶
Further restored the requests.packages namespace for compatibility reasons.
2.16.2 (2017-05-27)¶
Further restored the requests.packages namespace for compatibility reasons.
No code modification (noted below) should be necessary any longer.
2.16.1 (2017-05-27)¶
Restored the requests.packages namespace for compatibility reasons.
Bugfix for urllib3 version parsing.
Note: code that was written to import against the requests.packages namespace previously will have to import code that rests at this module-level now.
For example:
from requests.packages.urllib3.poolmanager import PoolManager
Will need to be re-written to be:
from requests.packages import urllib3 urllib3.poolmanager.PoolManager
Or, even better:
from urllib3.poolmanager import PoolManager
2.16.0 (2017-05-26)¶
Unvendor ALL the things!
2.15.1 (2017-05-26)¶
Everyone makes mistakes.
2.15.0 (2017-05-26)¶
Improvements
Introduction of the Response.next property, for getting the next PreparedResponse from a redirect chain (when allow_redirects=False).
Internal refactoring of __version__ module.
Bugfixes
Restored once-optional parameter for requests.utils.get_environ_proxies().
2.14.2 (2017-05-10)¶
Bugfixes
Changed a less-than to an equal-to and an or in the dependency markers to widen compatibility with older setuptools releases.
2.14.1 (2017-05-09)¶
Bugfixes
Changed the dependency markers to widen compatibility with older pip releases.
2.14.0 (2017-05-09)¶
Improvements
It is now possible to pass no_proxy as a key to the proxies dictionary to provide handling similar to the NO_PROXY environment variable.
When users provide invalid paths to certificate bundle files or directories Requests now raises IOError, rather than failing at the time of the HTTPS request with a fairly inscrutable certificate validation error.
The behavior of SessionRedirectMixin was slightly altered. resolve_redirects will now detect a redirect by calling get_redirect_target(response) instead of directly querying Response.is_redirect and Response.headers[‘location’]. Advanced users will be able to process malformed redirects more easily.
Changed the internal calculation of elapsed request time to have higher resolution on Windows.
Added win_inet_pton as conditional dependency for the [socks] extra on Windows with Python 2.7.
Changed the proxy bypass implementation on Windows: the proxy bypass check doesn’t use forward and reverse DNS requests anymore
URLs with schemes that begin with http but are not http or https no longer have their host parts forced to lowercase.
Bugfixes
Much improved handling of non-ASCII Location header values in redirects. Fewer UnicodeDecodeErrors are encountered on Python 2, and Python 3 now correctly understands that Latin-1 is unlikely to be the correct encoding.
If an attempt to seek file to find out its length fails, we now appropriately handle that by aborting our content-length calculations.
Restricted HTTPDigestAuth to only respond to auth challenges made on 4XX responses, rather than to all auth challenges.
Fixed some code that was firing DeprecationWarning on Python 3.6.
The dismayed person emoticon (/o\) no longer has a big head. I’m sure this is what you were all worrying about most.
Miscellaneous
Updated bundled urllib3 to v1.21.1.
Updated bundled chardet to v3.0.2.
Updated bundled idna to v2.5.
Updated bundled certifi to 2017.4.17.
2.13.0 (2017-01-24)¶
Features
Only load the idna library when we’ve determined we need it. This will save some memory for users.
Miscellaneous
Updated bundled urllib3 to 1.20.
Updated bundled idna to 2.2.
2.12.5 (2017-01-18)¶
Bugfixes
Fixed an issue with JSON encoding detection, specifically detecting big-endian UTF-32 with BOM.
2.12.4 (2016-12-14)¶
Bugfixes
Fixed regression from 2.12.2 where non-string types were rejected in the basic auth parameters. While support for this behaviour has been re-added, the behaviour is deprecated and will be removed in the future.
2.12.3 (2016-12-01)¶
Bugfixes
Fixed regression from v2.12.1 for URLs with schemes that begin with “http”. These URLs have historically been processed as though they were HTTP-schemed URLs, and so have had parameters added. This was removed in v2.12.2 in an overzealous attempt to resolve problems with IDNA-encoding those URLs. This change was reverted: the other fixes for IDNA-encoding have been judged to be sufficient to return to the behaviour Requests had before v2.12.0.
2.12.2 (2016-11-30)¶
Bugfixes
Fixed several issues with IDNA-encoding URLs that are technically invalid but which are widely accepted. Requests will now attempt to IDNA-encode a URL if it can but, if it fails, and the host contains only ASCII characters, it will be passed through optimistically. This will allow users to opt-in to using IDNA2003 themselves if they want to, and will also allow technically invalid but still common hostnames.
Fixed an issue where URLs with leading whitespace would raise InvalidSchema errors.
Fixed an issue where some URLs without the HTTP or HTTPS schemes would still have HTTP URL preparation applied to them.
Fixed an issue where Unicode strings could not be used in basic auth.
Fixed an issue encountered by some Requests plugins where constructing a Response object would cause Response.content to raise an AttributeError.
2.12.1 (2016-11-16)¶
Bugfixes
Updated setuptools ‘security’ extra for the new PyOpenSSL backend in urllib3.
Miscellaneous
Updated bundled urllib3 to 1.19.1.
2.12.0 (2016-11-15)¶
Improvements
Updated support for internationalized domain names from IDNA2003 to IDNA2008. This updated support is required for several forms of IDNs and is mandatory for .de domains.
Much improved heuristics for guessing content lengths: Requests will no longer read an entire StringIO into memory.
Much improved logic for recalculating Content-Length headers for PreparedRequest objects.
Improved tolerance for file-like objects that have no tell method but do have a seek method.
Anything that is a subclass of Mapping is now treated like a dictionary by the data= keyword argument.
Requests now tolerates empty passwords in proxy credentials, rather than stripping the credentials.
If a request is made with a file-like object as the body and that request is redirected with a 307 or 308 status code, Requests will now attempt to rewind the body object so it can be replayed.
Bugfixes
When calling response.close, the call to close will be propagated through to non-urllib3 backends.
Fixed issue where the ALL_PROXY environment variable would be preferred over scheme-specific variables like HTTP_PROXY.
Fixed issue where non-UTF8 reason phrases got severely mangled by falling back to decoding using ISO 8859-1 instead.
Fixed a bug where Requests would not correctly correlate cookies set when using custom Host headers if those Host headers did not use the native string type for the platform.
Miscellaneous
Updated bundled urllib3 to 1.19.
Updated bundled certifi certs to 2016.09.26.
2.11.1 (2016-08-17)¶
Bugfixes
Fixed a bug when using iter_content with decode_unicode=True for streamed bodies would raise AttributeError. This bug was introduced in 2.11.
Strip Content-Type and Transfer-Encoding headers from the header block when following a redirect that transforms the verb from POST/PUT to GET.
2.11.0 (2016-08-08)¶
Improvements
Added support for the ALL_PROXY environment variable.
Reject header values that contain leading whitespace or newline characters to reduce risk of header smuggling.
Bugfixes
Fixed occasional TypeError when attempting to decode a JSON response that occurred in an error case. Now correctly returns a ValueError.
Requests would incorrectly ignore a non-CIDR IP address in the NO_PROXY environment variables: Requests now treats it as a specific IP.
Fixed a bug when sending JSON data that could cause us to encounter obscure OpenSSL errors in certain network conditions (yes, really).
Added type checks to ensure that iter_content only accepts integers and None for chunk sizes.
Fixed issue where responses whose body had not been fully consumed would have the underlying connection closed but not returned to the connection pool, which could cause Requests to hang in situations where the HTTPAdapter had been configured to use a blocking connection pool.
Miscellaneous
Updated bundled urllib3 to 1.16.
Some previous releases accidentally accepted non-strings as acceptable header values. This release does not.
2.10.0 (2016-04-29)¶
New Features
SOCKS Proxy Support! (requires PySocks; $ pip install requests[socks])
Miscellaneous
Updated bundled urllib3 to 1.15.1.
2.9.2 (2016-04-29)¶
Improvements
Change built-in CaseInsensitiveDict (used for headers) to use OrderedDict as its underlying datastore.
Bugfixes
Don’t use redirect_cache if allow_redirects=False
When passed objects that throw exceptions from tell(), send them via chunked transfer encoding instead of failing.
Raise a ProxyError for proxy related connection issues.
2.9.1 (2015-12-21)¶
Bugfixes
Resolve regression introduced in 2.9.0 that made it impossible to send binary strings as bodies in Python 3.
Fixed errors when calculating cookie expiration dates in certain locales.
Miscellaneous
Updated bundled urllib3 to 1.13.1.
2.9.0 (2015-12-15)¶
Minor Improvements (Backwards compatible)
The verify keyword argument now supports being passed a path to a directory of CA certificates, not just a single-file bundle.
Warnings are now emitted when sending files opened in text mode.
Added the 511 Network Authentication Required status code to the status code registry.
Bugfixes
For file-like objects that are not sought to the very beginning, we now send the content length for the number of bytes we will actually read, rather than the total size of the file, allowing partial file uploads.
When uploading file-like objects, if they are empty or have no obvious content length we set Transfer-Encoding: chunked rather than Content-Length: 0.
We correctly receive the response in buffered mode when uploading chunked bodies.
We now handle being passed a query string as a bytestring on Python 3, by decoding it as UTF-8.
Sessions are now closed in all cases (exceptional and not) when using the functional API rather than leaking and waiting for the garbage collector to clean them up.
Correctly handle digest auth headers with a malformed qop directive that contains no token, by treating it the same as if no qop directive was provided at all.
Minor performance improvements when removing specific cookies by name.
Miscellaneous
Updated urllib3 to 1.13.
2.8.1 (2015-10-13)¶
Bugfixes
Update certificate bundle to match certifi 2015.9.6.2’s weak certificate bundle.
Fix a bug in 2.8.0 where requests would raise ConnectTimeout instead of ConnectionError
When using the PreparedRequest flow, requests will now correctly respect the json parameter. Broken in 2.8.0.
When using the PreparedRequest flow, requests will now correctly handle a Unicode-string method name on Python 2. Broken in 2.8.0.
2.8.0 (2015-10-05)¶
Minor Improvements (Backwards Compatible)
Requests now supports per-host proxies. This allows the proxies dictionary to have entries of the form {‘<scheme>://<hostname>’: ‘<proxy>’}. Host-specific proxies will be used in preference to the previously-supported scheme-specific ones, but the previous syntax will continue to work.
Response.raise_for_status now prints the URL that failed as part of the exception message.
requests.utils.get_netrc_auth now takes an raise_errors kwarg, defaulting to False. When True, errors parsing .netrc files cause exceptions to be thrown.
Change to bundled projects import logic to make it easier to unbundle requests downstream.
Changed the default User-Agent string to avoid leaking data on Linux: now contains only the requests version.
Bugfixes
The json parameter to post() and friends will now only be used if neither data nor files are present, consistent with the documentation.
We now ignore empty fields in the NO_PROXY environment variable.
Fixed problem where httplib.BadStatusLine would get raised if combining stream=True with contextlib.closing.
Prevented bugs where we would attempt to return the same connection back to the connection pool twice when sending a Chunked body.
Miscellaneous minor internal changes.
Digest Auth support is now thread safe.
Updates
Updated urllib3 to 1.12.
2.7.0 (2015-05-03)¶
This is the first release that follows our new release process. For more, see [our documentation](https://requests.readthedocs.io/en/latest/community/release-process/).
Bugfixes
Updated urllib3 to 1.10.4, resolving several bugs involving chunked transfer encoding and response framing.
2.6.2 (2015-04-23)¶
Bugfixes
Fix regression where compressed data that was sent as chunked data was not properly decompressed. (#2561)
2.6.1 (2015-04-22)¶
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)
2.6.0 (2015-03-14)¶
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](https://bugfuzz.com). 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.
