Recent Releases of requests

requests - v2.32.5

2.32.5 (2025-08-18)

Bugfixes

  • The SSLContext caching feature originally introduced in 2.32.0 has created a new class of issues in Requests that have had negative impact across a number of use cases. The Requests team has decided to revert this feature as long term maintenance of it is proving to be unsustainable in its current iteration.

Deprecations - Added support for Python 3.14. - Dropped support for Python 3.8 following its end of support.

requests - v2.32.4

2.32.4 (2025-06-10)

Security - CVE-2024-47081 Fixed an issue where a maliciously crafted URL and trusted environment will retrieve credentials for the wrong hostname/machine from a netrc file. (#6965)

Improvements - Numerous documentation improvements

Deprecations - Added support for pypy 3.11 for Linux and macOS. (#6926) - Dropped support for pypy 3.9 following its end of support. (#6926)

requests - v2.32.3

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)

requests - v2.32.2

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)

requests - v2.32.1

2.32.1 (2024-05-20)

Bugfixes - Add missing test certs to the sdist distributed on PyPI.

requests - v2.32.0

2.32.0 (2024-05-20)

🐍 PYCON US 2024 EDITION 🐍

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.

requests - v2.31.0

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 and CVE-2023-32681.

requests - v2.30.0

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.

requests - v2.28.0

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). (#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 entires 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. (#6079)

Bugfixes

  • Fixed parsing issue that resulted in the auth component being dropped from proxy URLs. (#6028)

requests - v2.27.0

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.
