Package: python-requests Version: 2.4.3-6 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer, Please update to python-requests2.7 or python3-requests2.7 . Here's the changelog as can be seen via https://github.com/kennethreitz/requests/blob/master/HISTORY.rst
2.7.0 (2015-05-03) This is the first release that follows our new release process. For more, see [our documentation](http://docs.python-requests.org/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. 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. 2.5.3 (2015-02-24) Bugfixes Revert changes to our vendored certificate bundle. For more context see (#2455, #2456, and http://bugs.python.org/issue23476) 2.5.2 (2015-02-23) Features and Improvements Add sha256 fingerprint support. (shazow/urllib3#540) Improve the performance of headers. (shazow/urllib3#544) 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) Security Pulled in an updated cacert.pem. Drop RC4 from the default cipher list. (shazow/urllib3#551) 2.5.1 (2014-12-23) Behavioural Changes Only catch HTTPErrors in raise_for_status (#2382) Bugfixes Handle LocationParseError from urllib3 (#2344) Handle file-like object filenames that are not strings (#2379) Unbreak HTTPDigestAuth handler. Allow new nonces to be negotiated (#2389) 2.5.0 (2014-12-01) Improvements Allow usage of urllib3's Retry object with HTTPAdapters (#2216) The iter_lines method on a response now accepts a delimiter with which to split the content (#2295) Behavioural Changes Add deprecation warnings to functions in requests.utils that will be removed in 3.0 (#2309) Sessions used by the functional API are always closed (#2326) Restrict requests to HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/1.0 (stop accepting HTTP/0.9) (#2323) Bugfixes Only parse the URL once (#2353) Allow Content-Length header to always be overriden (#2332) Properly handle files in HTTPDigestAuth (#2333) Cap redirect_cache size to prevent memory abuse (#2299) Fix HTTPDigestAuth handling of redirects after authenticating successfully (#2253) Fix crash with custom method parameter to Session.request (#2317) Fix how Link headers are parsed using the regular expression library (#2271) Documentation Add more references for interlinking (#2348) Update CSS for theme (#2290) Update width of buttons and sidebar (#2289) Replace references of Gittip with Gratipay (#2282) Add link to changelog in sidebar (#2273) Look forward to updated python-requests package in the repo. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental'), (1, 'unstable'), (1, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages python-requests depends on: ii ca-certificates 20141019 ii python-chardet 2.3.0-1 ii python-urllib3 1.10-1 pn python:any <none> Versions of packages python-requests recommends: ii python-ndg-httpsclient 0.3.2-1 ii python-openssl 0.15.1-1 ii python-pyasn1 0.1.7-1 python-requests suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
