path: root/CHANGES.rst

2.0.2 (2023-05-03)
==================

- Fixed ``HTTPResponse.stream()`` to continue yielding bytes if buffered decompressed data
  was still available to be read even if the underlying socket is closed. This prevents
  a compressed response from being truncated. (`#3009 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/3009>`__)


2.0.1 (2023-04-30)
==================

- Fixed a socket leak when fingerprint or hostname verifications fail. (`#2991 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2991>`__)
- Fixed an error when ``HTTPResponse.read(0)`` was the first ``read`` call or when the internal response body buffer was otherwise empty. (`#2998 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2998>`__)


2.0.0 (2023-04-26)
==================

Read the `v2.0 migration guide <https://urllib3.readthedocs.io/en/latest/v2-migration-guide.html>`__ for help upgrading to the latest version of urllib3.

Removed
-------

* Removed support for Python 2.7, 3.5, and 3.6 (`#883 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/883>`__, `#2336 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2336>`__).
* Removed fallback on certificate ``commonName`` in ``match_hostname()`` function.
  This behavior was deprecated in May 2000 in RFC 2818. Instead only ``subjectAltName``
  is used to verify the hostname by default. To enable verifying the hostname against
  ``commonName`` use ``SSLContext.hostname_checks_common_name = True`` (`#2113 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2113>`__).
* Removed support for Python with an ``ssl`` module compiled with LibreSSL, CiscoSSL,
  wolfSSL, and all other OpenSSL alternatives. Python is moving to require OpenSSL with PEP 644 (`#2168 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2168>`__).
* Removed support for OpenSSL versions earlier than 1.1.1 or that don't have SNI support.
  When an incompatible OpenSSL version is detected an ``ImportError`` is raised (`#2168 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2168>`__).
* Removed the list of default ciphers for OpenSSL 1.1.1+ and SecureTransport as their own defaults are already secure (`#2082 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2082>`__).
* Removed ``urllib3.contrib.appengine.AppEngineManager`` and support for Google App Engine Standard Environment (`#2044 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2044>`__).
* Removed deprecated ``Retry`` options ``method_whitelist``, ``DEFAULT_REDIRECT_HEADERS_BLACKLIST`` (`#2086 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2086>`__).
* Removed ``urllib3.HTTPResponse.from_httplib`` (`#2648 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2648>`__).
* Removed default value of ``None`` for the ``request_context`` parameter of ``urllib3.PoolManager.connection_from_pool_key``. This change should have no effect on users as the default value of ``None`` was an invalid option and was never used (`#1897 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/1897>`__).
* Removed the ``urllib3.request`` module. ``urllib3.request.RequestMethods`` has been made a private API.
  This change was made to ensure that ``from urllib3 import request`` imported the top-level ``request()``
  function instead of the ``urllib3.request`` module (`#2269 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2269>`__).
* Removed support for SSLv3.0 from the ``urllib3.contrib.pyopenssl`` even when support is available from the compiled OpenSSL library (`#2233 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2233>`__).
* Removed the deprecated ``urllib3.contrib.ntlmpool`` module (`#2339 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2339>`__).
* Removed ``DEFAULT_CIPHERS``, ``HAS_SNI``, ``USE_DEFAULT_SSLCONTEXT_CIPHERS``, from the private module ``urllib3.util.ssl_`` (`#2168 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2168>`__).
* Removed ``urllib3.exceptions.SNIMissingWarning`` (`#2168 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2168>`__).
* Removed the ``_prepare_conn`` method from ``HTTPConnectionPool``. Previously this was only used to call ``HTTPSConnection.set_cert()`` by ``HTTPSConnectionPool`` (`#1985 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/1985>`__).
* Removed ``tls_in_tls_required`` property from ``HTTPSConnection``. This is now determined from the ``scheme`` parameter in ``HTTPConnection.set_tunnel()`` (`#1985 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/1985>`__).
* Removed the ``strict`` parameter/attribute from ``HTTPConnection``, ``HTTPSConnection``, ``HTTPConnectionPool``, ``HTTPSConnectionPool``, and ``HTTPResponse`` (`#2064 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2064>`__).

Deprecated
----------

* Deprecated ``HTTPResponse.getheaders()`` and ``HTTPResponse.getheader()`` which will be removed in urllib3 v2.1.0. Instead use ``HTTPResponse.headers`` and ``HTTPResponse.headers.get(name, default)``. (`#1543 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/1543>`__, `#2814 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2814>`__).
* Deprecated ``urllib3.contrib.pyopenssl`` module which will be removed in urllib3 v2.1.0 (`#2691 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2691>`__).
* Deprecated ``urllib3.contrib.securetransport`` module which will be removed in urllib3 v2.1.0 (`#2692 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2692>`__).
* Deprecated ``ssl_version`` option in favor of ``ssl_minimum_version``. ``ssl_version`` will be removed in urllib3 v2.1.0 (`#2110 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2110>`__).
* Deprecated the ``strict`` parameter of ``PoolManager.connection_from_context()`` as it's not longer needed in Python 3.x. It will be removed in urllib3 v2.1.0 (`#2267 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2267>`__)
* Deprecated the ``NewConnectionError.pool`` attribute which will be removed in urllib3 v2.1.0 (`#2271 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2271>`__).
* Deprecated ``format_header_param_html5`` and ``format_header_param`` in favor of ``format_multipart_header_param`` (`#2257 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2257>`__).
* Deprecated ``RequestField.header_formatter`` parameter which will be removed in urllib3 v2.1.0 (`#2257 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2257>`__).
* Deprecated ``HTTPSConnection.set_cert()`` method. Instead pass parameters to the ``HTTPSConnection`` constructor (`#1985 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/1985>`__).
* Deprecated ``HTTPConnection.request_chunked()`` method which will be removed in urllib3 v2.1.0. Instead pass ``chunked=True`` to ``HTTPConnection.request()`` (`#1985 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/1985>`__).

Added
-----

* Added top-level ``urllib3.request`` function which uses a preconfigured module-global ``PoolManager`` instance (`#2150 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2150>`__).
* Added the ``json`` parameter to ``urllib3.request()``, ``PoolManager.request()``, and ``ConnectionPool.request()`` methods to send JSON bodies in requests. Using this parameter will set the header ``Content-Type: application/json`` if ``Content-Type`` isn't already defined.
  Added support for parsing JSON response bodies with ``HTTPResponse.json()`` method (`#2243 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2243>`__).
* Added type hints to the ``urllib3`` module (`#1897 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/1897>`__).
* Added ``ssl_minimum_version`` and ``ssl_maximum_version`` options which set
  ``SSLContext.minimum_version`` and ``SSLContext.maximum_version`` (`#2110 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2110>`__).
* Added support for Zstandard (RFC 8878) when ``zstandard`` 1.18.0 or later is installed.
  Added the ``zstd`` extra which installs the ``zstandard`` package (`#1992 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/1992>`__).
* Added ``urllib3.response.BaseHTTPResponse`` class. All future response classes will be subclasses of ``BaseHTTPResponse`` (`#2083 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2083>`__).
* Added ``FullPoolError`` which is raised when ``PoolManager(block=True)`` and a connection is returned to a full pool (`#2197 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2197>`__).
* Added ``HTTPHeaderDict`` to the top-level ``urllib3`` namespace (`#2216 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2216>`__).
* Added support for configuring header merging behavior with HTTPHeaderDict
  When using a ``HTTPHeaderDict`` to provide headers for a request, by default duplicate
  header values will be repeated. But if ``combine=True`` is passed into a call to
  ``HTTPHeaderDict.add``, then the added header value will be merged in with an existing
  value into a comma-separated list (``X-My-Header: foo, bar``) (`#2242 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2242>`__).
* Added ``NameResolutionError`` exception when a DNS error occurs (`#2305 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2305>`__).
* Added ``proxy_assert_hostname`` and ``proxy_assert_fingerprint`` kwargs to ``ProxyManager`` (`#2409 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2409>`__).
* Added a configurable ``backoff_max`` parameter to the ``Retry`` class.
  If a custom ``backoff_max`` is provided to the ``Retry`` class, it
  will replace the ``Retry.DEFAULT_BACKOFF_MAX`` (`#2494 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2494>`__).
* Added the ``authority`` property to the Url class as per RFC 3986 3.2. This property should be used in place of ``netloc`` for users who want to include the userinfo (auth) component of the URI (`#2520 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2520>`__).
* Added the ``scheme`` parameter to ``HTTPConnection.set_tunnel`` to configure the scheme of the origin being tunnelled to (`#1985 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/1985>`__).
* Added the ``is_closed``, ``is_connected`` and ``has_connected_to_proxy`` properties to ``HTTPConnection`` (`#1985 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/1985>`__).
* Added optional ``backoff_jitter`` parameter to ``Retry``. (`#2952 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2952>`__)

Changed
-------

* Changed ``urllib3.response.HTTPResponse.read`` to respect the semantics of ``io.BufferedIOBase`` regardless of compression. Specifically, this method:

  * Only returns an empty bytes object to indicate EOF (that is, the response has been fully consumed).
  * Never returns more bytes than requested.
  * Can issue any number of system calls: zero, one or multiple.

  If you want each ``urllib3.response.HTTPResponse.read`` call to issue a single system call, you need to disable decompression by setting ``decode_content=False`` (`#2128 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2128>`__).
* Changed ``urllib3.HTTPConnection.getresponse`` to return an instance of ``urllib3.HTTPResponse`` instead of ``http.client.HTTPResponse`` (`#2648 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2648>`__).
* Changed ``ssl_version`` to instead set the corresponding ``SSLContext.minimum_version``
  and ``SSLContext.maximum_version`` values.  Regardless of ``ssl_version`` passed
  ``SSLContext`` objects are now constructed using ``ssl.PROTOCOL_TLS_CLIENT`` (`#2110 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2110>`__).
* Changed default ``SSLContext.minimum_version`` to be ``TLSVersion.TLSv1_2`` in line with Python 3.10 (`#2373 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2373>`__).
* Changed ``ProxyError`` to wrap any connection error (timeout, TLS, DNS) that occurs when connecting to the proxy (`#2482 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/pull/2482>`__).
* Changed ``urllib3.util.create_urllib3_context`` to not override the system cipher suites with
  a default value. The new default will be cipher suites configured by the operating system (`#2168 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2168>`__).
* Changed ``multipart/form-data`` header parameter formatting matches the WHATWG HTML Standard as of 2021-06-10. Control characters in filenames are no longer percent encoded (`#2257 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2257>`__).
* Changed the error raised when connecting via HTTPS when the ``ssl`` module isn't available from ``SSLError`` to ``ImportError`` (`#2589 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2589>`__).
* Changed ``HTTPConnection.request()`` to always use lowercase chunk boundaries when sending requests with ``Transfer-Encoding: chunked`` (`#2515 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2515>`__).
* Changed ``enforce_content_length`` default to True, preventing silent data loss when reading streamed responses (`#2514 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2514>`__).
* Changed internal implementation of ``HTTPHeaderDict`` to use ``dict`` instead of ``collections.OrderedDict`` for better performance (`#2080 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2080>`__).
* Changed the ``urllib3.contrib.pyopenssl`` module to wrap ``OpenSSL.SSL.Error`` with ``ssl.SSLError`` in ``PyOpenSSLContext.load_cert_chain`` (`#2628 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2628>`__).
* Changed usage of the deprecated ``socket.error`` to ``OSError`` (`#2120 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2120>`__).
* Changed all parameters in the ``HTTPConnection`` and ``HTTPSConnection`` constructors to be keyword-only except ``host`` and ``port`` (`#1985 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/1985>`__).
* Changed ``HTTPConnection.getresponse()`` to set the socket timeout from ``HTTPConnection.timeout`` value before reading
  data from the socket. This previously was done manually by the ``HTTPConnectionPool`` calling ``HTTPConnection.sock.settimeout(...)`` (`#1985 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/1985>`__).
* Changed the ``_proxy_host`` property to ``_tunnel_host`` in ``HTTPConnectionPool`` to more closely match how the property is used (value in ``HTTPConnection.set_tunnel()``) (`#1985 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/1985>`__).
* Changed name of ``Retry.BACK0FF_MAX`` to be ``Retry.DEFAULT_BACKOFF_MAX``.
* Changed TLS handshakes to use ``SSLContext.check_hostname`` when possible (`#2452 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/pull/2452>`__).
* Changed ``server_hostname`` to behave like other parameters only used by ``HTTPSConnectionPool`` (`#2537 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/pull/2537>`__).
* Changed the default ``blocksize`` to 16KB to match OpenSSL's default read amounts (`#2348 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/pull/2348>`__).
* Changed ``HTTPResponse.read()`` to raise an error when calling with ``decode_content=False`` after using ``decode_content=True`` to prevent data loss (`#2800 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2800>`__).

Fixed
-----

* Fixed thread-safety issue where accessing a ``PoolManager`` with many distinct origins would cause connection pools to be closed while requests are in progress (`#1252 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/1252>`__).
* Fixed an issue where an ``HTTPConnection`` instance would erroneously reuse the socket read timeout value from reading the previous response instead of a newly configured connect timeout.
  Instead now if ``HTTPConnection.timeout`` is updated before sending the next request the new timeout value will be used (`#2645 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2645>`__).
* Fixed ``socket.error.errno`` when raised from pyOpenSSL's ``OpenSSL.SSL.SysCallError`` (`#2118 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2118>`__).
* Fixed the default value of ``HTTPSConnection.socket_options`` to match ``HTTPConnection`` (`#2213 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2213>`__).
* Fixed a bug where ``headers`` would be modified by the ``remove_headers_on_redirect`` feature (`#2272 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2272>`__).
* Fixed a reference cycle bug in ``urllib3.util.connection.create_connection()`` (`#2277 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2277>`__).
* Fixed a socket leak if ``HTTPConnection.connect()`` fails (`#2571 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/pull/2571>`__).
* Fixed ``urllib3.contrib.pyopenssl.WrappedSocket`` and ``urllib3.contrib.securetransport.WrappedSocket`` close methods (`#2970 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2970>`__)

1.26.15 (2023-03-10)
====================

* Remove "!" character from the unreserved characters in IPv6 Zone ID parsing
  (`#2899 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2899>`__)
* Fix IDNA handling of '\x80' byte (`#2901 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2901>`__)

1.26.14 (2023-01-11)
====================

* Fixed parsing of port 0 (zero) returning None, instead of 0. (`#2850 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2850>`__)
* Removed deprecated getheaders() calls in contrib module. Fixed the type hint of ``PoolKey.key_retries`` by adding ``bool`` to the union. (`#2865 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2865>`__)

1.26.13 (2022-11-23)
====================

* Deprecated the ``HTTPResponse.getheaders()`` and ``HTTPResponse.getheader()`` methods.
* Fixed an issue where parsing a URL with leading zeroes in the port would be rejected
  even when the port number after removing the zeroes was valid.
* Fixed a deprecation warning when using cryptography v39.0.0.
* Removed the ``<4`` in the ``Requires-Python`` packaging metadata field.

1.26.12 (2022-08-22)
====================

* Deprecated the `urllib3[secure]` extra and the `urllib3.contrib.pyopenssl` module.
  Both will be removed in v2.x. See this `GitHub issue <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2680>`_
  for justification and info on how to migrate.

1.26.11 (2022-07-25)
====================

* Fixed an issue where reading more than 2 GiB in a call to ``HTTPResponse.read`` would
  raise an ``OverflowError`` on Python 3.9 and earlier.

1.26.10 (2022-07-07)
====================

* Removed support for Python 3.5
* Fixed an issue where a ``ProxyError`` recommending configuring the proxy as HTTP
  instead of HTTPS could appear even when an HTTPS proxy wasn't configured.

1.26.9 (2022-03-16)
===================

* Changed ``urllib3[brotli]`` extra to favor installing Brotli libraries that are still
  receiving updates like ``brotli`` and ``brotlicffi`` instead of ``brotlipy``.
  This change does not impact behavior of urllib3, only which dependencies are installed.
* Fixed a socket leaking when ``HTTPSConnection.connect()`` raises an exception.
* Fixed ``server_hostname`` being forwarded from ``PoolManager`` to ``HTTPConnectionPool``
  when requesting an HTTP URL. Should only be forwarded when requesting an HTTPS URL.

1.26.8 (2022-01-07)
===================

* Added extra message to ``urllib3.exceptions.ProxyError`` when urllib3 detects that
  a proxy is configured to use HTTPS but the proxy itself appears to only use HTTP.
* Added a mention of the size of the connection pool when discarding a connection due to the pool being full.
* Added explicit support for Python 3.11.
* Deprecated the ``Retry.MAX_BACKOFF`` class property in favor of ``Retry.DEFAULT_MAX_BACKOFF``
  to better match the rest of the default parameter names. ``Retry.MAX_BACKOFF`` is removed in v2.0.
* Changed location of the vendored ``ssl.match_hostname`` function from ``urllib3.packages.ssl_match_hostname``
  to ``urllib3.util.ssl_match_hostname`` to ensure Python 3.10+ compatibility after being repackaged
  by downstream distributors.
* Fixed absolute imports, all imports are now relative.


1.26.7 (2021-09-22)
===================

* Fixed a bug with HTTPS hostname verification involving IP addresses and lack
  of SNI. (Issue #2400)
* Fixed a bug where IPv6 braces weren't stripped during certificate hostname
  matching. (Issue #2240)


1.26.6 (2021-06-25)
===================

* Deprecated the ``urllib3.contrib.ntlmpool`` module. urllib3 is not able to support
  it properly due to `reasons listed in this issue <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/2282>`_.
  If you are a user of this module please leave a comment.
* Changed ``HTTPConnection.request_chunked()`` to not erroneously emit multiple
  ``Transfer-Encoding`` headers in the case that one is already specified.
* Fixed typo in deprecation message to recommend ``Retry.DEFAULT_ALLOWED_METHODS``.


1.26.5 (2021-05-26)
===================

* Fixed deprecation warnings emitted in Python 3.10.
* Updated vendored ``six`` library to 1.16.0.
* Improved performance of URL parser when splitting
  the authority component.


1.26.4 (2021-03-15)
===================

* Changed behavior of the default ``SSLContext`` when connecting to HTTPS proxy
  during HTTPS requests. The default ``SSLContext`` now sets ``check_hostname=True``.


1.26.3 (2021-01-26)
===================

* Fixed bytes and string comparison issue with headers (Pull #2141)

* Changed ``ProxySchemeUnknown`` error message to be
  more actionable if the user supplies a proxy URL without
  a scheme. (Pull #2107)


1.26.2 (2020-11-12)
===================

* Fixed an issue where ``wrap_socket`` and ``CERT_REQUIRED`` wouldn't
  be imported properly on Python 2.7.8 and earlier (Pull #2052)


1.26.1 (2020-11-11)
===================

* Fixed an issue where two ``User-Agent`` headers would be sent if a
  ``User-Agent`` header key is passed as ``bytes`` (Pull #2047)


1.26.0 (2020-11-10)
===================

* **NOTE: urllib3 v2.0 will drop support for Python 2**.
  `Read more in the v2.0 Roadmap <https://urllib3.readthedocs.io/en/latest/v2-roadmap.html>`_.

* Added support for HTTPS proxies contacting HTTPS servers (Pull #1923, Pull #1806)

* Deprecated negotiating TLSv1 and TLSv1.1 by default. Users that
  still wish to use TLS earlier than 1.2 without a deprecation warning
  should opt-in explicitly by setting ``ssl_version=ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1_1`` (Pull #2002)
  **Starting in urllib3 v2.0: Connections that receive a ``DeprecationWarning`` will fail**

* Deprecated ``Retry`` options ``Retry.DEFAULT_METHOD_WHITELIST``, ``Retry.DEFAULT_REDIRECT_HEADERS_BLACKLIST``
  and ``Retry(method_whitelist=...)`` in favor of ``Retry.DEFAULT_ALLOWED_METHODS``,
  ``Retry.DEFAULT_REMOVE_HEADERS_ON_REDIRECT``, and ``Retry(allowed_methods=...)``
  (Pull #2000) **Starting in urllib3 v2.0: Deprecated options will be removed**

* Added default ``User-Agent`` header to every request (Pull #1750)

* Added ``urllib3.util.SKIP_HEADER`` for skipping ``User-Agent``, ``Accept-Encoding``,
  and ``Host`` headers from being automatically emitted with requests (Pull #2018)

* Collapse ``transfer-encoding: chunked`` request data and framing into
  the same ``socket.send()`` call (Pull #1906)

* Send ``http/1.1`` ALPN identifier with every TLS handshake by default (Pull #1894)

* Properly terminate SecureTransport connections when CA verification fails (Pull #1977)

* Don't emit an ``SNIMissingWarning`` when passing ``server_hostname=None``
  to SecureTransport (Pull #1903)

* Suppress ``BrokenPipeError`` when writing request body after the server
  has closed the socket (Pull #1524)

* Wrap ``ssl.SSLError`` that can be raised from reading a socket (e.g. "bad MAC")
  into an ``urllib3.exceptions.SSLError`` (Pull #1939)


1.25.11 (2020-10-19)
====================

* Fix retry backoff time parsed from ``Retry-After`` header when given
  in the HTTP date format. The HTTP date was parsed as the local timezone
  rather than accounting for the timezone in the HTTP date (typically
  UTC) (Pull #1932, Pull #1935, Pull #1938, Pull #1949)

* Fix issue where an error would be raised when the ``SSLKEYLOGFILE``
  environment variable was set to the empty string. Now ``SSLContext.keylog_file``
  is not set in this situation (Pull #2016)


1.25.10 (2020-07-22)
====================

* Added support for ``SSLKEYLOGFILE`` environment variable for
  logging TLS session keys with use with programs like
  Wireshark for decrypting captured web traffic (Pull #1867)

* Fixed loading of SecureTransport libraries on macOS Big Sur
  due to the new dynamic linker cache (Pull #1905)

* Collapse chunked request bodies data and framing into one
  call to ``send()`` to reduce the number of TCP packets by 2-4x (Pull #1906)

  was empty when requesting a connection (Pull #1866)

* Avoid ``hasattr`` call in ``BrotliDecoder.decompress()`` (Pull #1858)


1.25.9 (2020-04-16)
===================

* Added ``InvalidProxyConfigurationWarning`` which is raised when
  erroneously specifying an HTTPS proxy URL. urllib3 doesn't currently
  support connecting to HTTPS proxies but will soon be able to
  and we would like users to migrate properly without much breakage.

  See `this GitHub issue <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/1850>`_
  for more information on how to fix your proxy config. (Pull #1851)

* Drain connection after ``PoolManager`` redirect (Pull #1817)

* Ensure ``load_verify_locations`` raises ``SSLError`` for all backends (Pull #1812)

* Rename ``VerifiedHTTPSConnection`` to ``HTTPSConnection`` (Pull #1805)

* Fix issue where URL fragment was sent within the request target. (Pull #1732)

* Fix issue where an empty query section in a URL would fail to parse. (Pull #1732)

* Remove TLS 1.3 support in SecureTransport due to Apple removing support (Pull #1703)


1.25.6 (2019-09-24)
===================

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

* CVE-2016-9015. Users who are using urllib3 version 1.17 or 1.18 along with
  PyOpenSSL injection and OpenSSL 1.1.0 *must* upgrade to this version. This
  release fixes a vulnerability whereby urllib3 in the above configuration
  would silently fail to validate TLS certificates due to erroneously setting
  invalid flags in OpenSSL's ``SSL_CTX_set_verify`` function. These erroneous
  flags do not cause a problem in OpenSSL versions before 1.1.0, which
  interprets the presence of any flag as requesting certificate validation.

  There is no PR for this patch, as it was prepared for simultaneous disclosure
  and release. The master branch received the same fix in Pull #1010.

* Try to use the operating system's certificates when we are using an
  ``SSLContext``. (Pull #941)

* Raise ``urllib3.exceptions.ProxyError`` when connecting to proxy fails.
  (Issue #221)

* Use international headers when posting file names. (Issue #119)

* Improved IPv6 support. (Issue #203)


1.6 (2013-04-25)
================

* Contrib: Optional SNI support for Py2 using PyOpenSSL. (Issue #156)

* ``ProxyManager`` automatically adds ``Host: ...`` header if not given.

* Improved SSL-related code. ``cert_req`` now optionally takes a string like
  "REQUIRED" or "NONE". Same with ``ssl_version`` takes strings like "SSLv23"
  The string values reflect the suffix of the respective constant variable.
  (Issue #130)

* Vendored ``socksipy`` now based on Anorov's fork which handles unexpectedly
  closed proxy connections and larger read buffers. (Issue #135)

* Ensure the connection is closed if no data is received, fixes connection leak
  on some platforms. (Issue #133)

* Added SNI support for SSL/TLS connections on Py32+. (Issue #89)

* Tests fixed to be compatible with Py26 again. (Issue #125)

* Added ability to choose SSL version by passing an ``ssl.PROTOCOL_*`` constant
  to the ``ssl_version`` parameter of ``HTTPSConnectionPool``. (Issue #109)

* Allow an explicit content type to be specified when encoding file fields.
  (Issue #126)

* Exceptions are now pickleable, with tests. (Issue #101)

* Fixed default headers not getting passed in some cases. (Issue #99)

* Treat "content-encoding" header value as case-insensitive, per RFC 2616
  Section 3.5. (Issue #110)

* "Connection Refused" SocketErrors will get retried rather than raised.
  (Issue #92)

* Updated vendored ``six``, no longer overrides the global ``six`` module
  namespace. (Issue #113)

* ``urllib3.exceptions.MaxRetryError`` contains a ``reason`` property holding
  the exception that prompted the final retry. If ``reason is None`` then it
  was due to a redirect. (Issue #92, #114)

* Fixed ``PoolManager.urlopen()`` from not redirecting more than once.
  (Issue #149)

* Don't assume ``Content-Type: text/plain`` for multi-part encoding parameters
  that are not files. (Issue #111)

* Pass `strict` param down to ``httplib.HTTPConnection``. (Issue #122)

* Added mechanism to verify SSL certificates by fingerprint (md5, sha1) or
  against an arbitrary hostname (when connecting by IP or for misconfigured
  servers). (Issue #140)

* Streaming decompression support. (Issue #159)


1.5 (2012-08-02)
================

* Added ``urllib3.add_stderr_logger()`` for quickly enabling STDERR debug
  logging in urllib3.

* Native full URL parsing (including auth, path, query, fragment) available in
  ``urllib3.util.parse_url(url)``.

* Built-in redirect will switch method to 'GET' if status code is 303.
  (Issue #11)

* ``urllib3.PoolManager`` strips the scheme and host before sending the request
  uri. (Issue #8)

* New ``urllib3.exceptions.DecodeError`` exception for when automatic decoding,
  based on the Content-Type header, fails.

* Fixed bug with pool depletion and leaking connections (Issue #76). Added
  explicit connection closing on pool eviction. Added
  ``urllib3.PoolManager.clear()``.

* 99% -> 100% unit test coverage.


1.4 (2012-06-16)
================

* Minor AppEngine-related fixes.

* Switched from ``mimetools.choose_boundary`` to ``uuid.uuid4()``.

* Improved url parsing. (Issue #73)

* IPv6 url support. (Issue #72)


1.3 (2012-03-25)
================

* Removed pre-1.0 deprecated API.

* Refactored helpers into a ``urllib3.util`` submodule.

* Fixed multipart encoding to support list-of-tuples for keys with multiple
  values. (Issue #48)

* Fixed multiple Set-Cookie headers in response not getting merged properly in
  Python 3. (Issue #53)

* AppEngine support with Py27. (Issue #61)

* Minor ``encode_multipart_formdata`` fixes related to Python 3 strings vs
  bytes.


1.2.2 (2012-02-06)
==================

* Fixed packaging bug of not shipping ``test-requirements.txt``. (Issue #47)


1.2.1 (2012-02-05)
==================

* Fixed another bug related to when ``ssl`` module is not available. (Issue #41)

* Location parsing errors now raise ``urllib3.exceptions.LocationParseError``
  which inherits from ``ValueError``.


1.2 (2012-01-29)
================

* Added Python 3 support (tested on 3.2.2)

* Dropped Python 2.5 support (tested on 2.6.7, 2.7.2)

* Use ``select.poll`` instead of ``select.select`` for platforms that support
  it.

* Use ``Queue.LifoQueue`` instead of ``Queue.Queue`` for more aggressive
  connection reusing. Configurable by overriding ``ConnectionPool.QueueCls``.

* Fixed ``ImportError`` during install when ``ssl`` module is not available.
  (Issue #41)

* Fixed ``PoolManager`` redirects between schemes (such as HTTP -> HTTPS) not
  completing properly. (Issue #28, uncovered by Issue #10 in v1.1)

* Ported ``dummyserver`` to use ``tornado`` instead of ``webob`` +
  ``eventlet``. Removed extraneous unsupported dummyserver testing backends.
  Added socket-level tests.

* More tests. Achievement Unlocked: 99% Coverage.


1.1 (2012-01-07)
================

* Refactored ``dummyserver`` to its own root namespace module (used for
  testing).

* Added hostname verification for ``VerifiedHTTPSConnection`` by vendoring in
  Py32's ``ssl_match_hostname``. (Issue #25)

* Fixed cross-host HTTP redirects when using ``PoolManager``. (Issue #10)

* Fixed ``decode_content`` being ignored when set through ``urlopen``. (Issue
  #27)

* Fixed timeout-related bugs. (Issues #17, #23)


1.0.2 (2011-11-04)
==================

* Fixed typo in ``VerifiedHTTPSConnection`` which would only present as a bug if
  you're using the object manually. (Thanks pyos)

* Made RecentlyUsedContainer (and consequently PoolManager) more thread-safe by
  wrapping the access log in a mutex. (Thanks @christer)

* Made RecentlyUsedContainer more dict-like (corrected ``__delitem__`` and
  ``__getitem__`` behaviour), with tests. Shouldn't affect core urllib3 code.


1.0.1 (2011-10-10)
==================

* Fixed a bug where the same connection would get returned into the pool twice,
  causing extraneous "HttpConnectionPool is full" log warnings.


1.0 (2011-10-08)
================

* Added ``PoolManager`` with LRU expiration of connections (tested and
  documented).
* Added ``ProxyManager`` (needs tests, docs, and confirmation that it works
  with HTTPS proxies).
* Added optional partial-read support for responses when
  ``preload_content=False``. You can now make requests and just read the headers
  without loading the content.
* Made response decoding optional (default on, same as before).
* Added optional explicit boundary string for ``encode_multipart_formdata``.
* Convenience request methods are now inherited from ``RequestMethods``. Old
  helpers like ``get_url`` and ``post_url`` should be abandoned in favour of
  the new ``request(method, url, ...)``.
* Refactored code to be even more decoupled, reusable, and extendable.
* License header added to ``.py`` files.
* Embiggened the documentation: Lots of Sphinx-friendly docstrings in the code
  and docs in ``docs/`` and on https://urllib3.readthedocs.io/.
* Embettered all the things!
* Started writing this file.

0.3 (2009-12-10)
================

* Added HTTPS support.
* Minor bug fixes.
* Refactored, broken backwards compatibility with 0.2.
* API to be treated as stable from this version forward.
