CVE-2021-28363 4 Fedoraproject, Oracle, Python and 1 more 4 Fedora, Peoplesoft Enterprise Peopletools, Urllib3 and 1 more 2026-10-14 6.5 Medium
The urllib3 library 1.26.x before 1.26.4 for Python omits SSL certificate validation in some cases involving HTTPS to HTTPS proxies. The initial connection to the HTTPS proxy (if an SSLContext isn't given via proxy_config) doesn't verify the hostname of the certificate. This means certificates for different servers that still validate properly with the default urllib3 SSLContext will be silently accepted.
CVE-2025-66471 2 Python, Urllib3 2 Urllib3, Urllib3 2025-12-10 7.5 High
urllib3 is a user-friendly HTTP client library for Python. Starting in version 1.0 and prior to 2.6.0, the Streaming API improperly handles highly compressed data. urllib3's streaming API is designed for the efficient handling of large HTTP responses by reading the content in chunks, rather than loading the entire response body into memory at once. When streaming a compressed response, urllib3 can perform decoding or decompression based on the HTTP Content-Encoding header (e.g., gzip, deflate, br, or zstd). The library must read compressed data from the network and decompress it until the requested chunk size is met. Any resulting decompressed data that exceeds the requested amount is held in an internal buffer for the next read operation. The decompression logic could cause urllib3 to fully decode a small amount of highly compressed data in a single operation. This can result in excessive resource consumption (high CPU usage and massive memory allocation for the decompressed data.
CVE-2025-66418 2 Python, Urllib3 2 Urllib3, Urllib3 2025-12-10 7.5 High
urllib3 is a user-friendly HTTP client library for Python. Starting in version 1.24 and prior to 2.6.0, the number of links in the decompression chain was unbounded allowing a malicious server to insert a virtually unlimited number of compression steps leading to high CPU usage and massive memory allocation for the decompressed data. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.6.0.
CVE-2016-9015 1 Python 1 Urllib3 2025-04-20 N/A
Versions 1.17 and 1.18 of the Python urllib3 library suffer from a vulnerability that can cause them, in certain configurations, to not correctly validate TLS certificates. This places users of the library with those configurations at risk of man-in-the-middle and information leakage attacks. This vulnerability affects users using versions 1.17 and 1.18 of the urllib3 library, who are using the optional PyOpenSSL support for TLS instead of the regular standard library TLS backend, and who are using OpenSSL 1.1.0 via PyOpenSSL. This is an extremely uncommon configuration, so the security impact of this vulnerability is low.
CVE-2018-20060 3 Fedoraproject, Python, Redhat 4 Fedora, Urllib3, Ansible Tower and 1 more 2024-12-27 N/A
urllib3 before version 1.23 does not remove the Authorization HTTP header when following a cross-origin redirect (i.e., a redirect that differs in host, port, or scheme). This can allow for credentials in the Authorization header to be exposed to unintended hosts or transmitted in cleartext.
CVE-2021-33503 4 Fedoraproject, Oracle, Python and 1 more 10 Fedora, Enterprise Manager Ops Center, Instantis Enterprisetrack and 7 more 2024-11-21 7.5 High
An issue was discovered in urllib3 before 1.26.5. When provided with a URL containing many @ characters in the authority component, the authority regular expression exhibits catastrophic backtracking, causing a denial of service if a URL were passed as a parameter or redirected to via an HTTP redirect.
CVE-2020-7212 1 Python 1 Urllib3 2024-11-21 7.5 High
The _encode_invalid_chars function in util/url.py in the urllib3 library 1.25.2 through 1.25.7 for Python allows a denial of service (CPU consumption) because of an inefficient algorithm. The percent_encodings array contains all matches of percent encodings. It is not deduplicated. For a URL of length N, the size of percent_encodings may be up to O(N). The next step (normalize existing percent-encoded bytes) also takes up to O(N) for each step, so the total time is O(N^2). If percent_encodings were deduplicated, the time to compute _encode_invalid_chars would be O(kN), where k is at most 484 ((10+6*2)^2).
CVE-2020-26137 5 Canonical, Debian, Oracle and 2 more 8 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Communications Cloud Native Core Network Function Cloud Native Environment and 5 more 2024-11-21 6.5 Medium
urllib3 before 1.25.9 allows CRLF injection if the attacker controls the HTTP request method, as demonstrated by inserting CR and LF control characters in the first argument of putrequest(). NOTE: this is similar to CVE-2020-26116.
CVE-2019-11324 3 Canonical, Python, Redhat 4 Ubuntu Linux, Urllib3, Enterprise Linux and 1 more 2024-11-21 N/A
The urllib3 library before 1.24.2 for Python mishandles certain cases where the desired set of CA certificates is different from the OS store of CA certificates, which results in SSL connections succeeding in situations where a verification failure is the correct outcome. This is related to use of the ssl_context, ca_certs, or ca_certs_dir argument.
CVE-2019-11236 2 Python, Redhat 4 Urllib3, Ansible Tower, Enterprise Linux and 1 more 2024-11-21 N/A
In the urllib3 library through 1.24.1 for Python, CRLF injection is possible if the attacker controls the request parameter.
CVE-2018-25091 2 Python, Redhat 2 Urllib3, Enterprise Linux 2024-11-21 6.1 Medium
urllib3 before 1.24.2 does not remove the authorization HTTP header when following a cross-origin redirect (i.e., a redirect that differs in host, port, or scheme). This can allow for credentials in the authorization header to be exposed to unintended hosts or transmitted in cleartext. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2018-20060 (which was case-sensitive).
