GitHub Vulnerability Alerts

CVE-2025-50182

urllib3 supports being used in a Pyodide runtime utilizing the JavaScript Fetch API or falling back on XMLHttpRequest. This means you can use Python libraries to make HTTP requests from your browser or Node.js. Additionally, urllib3 provides a mechanism to control redirects.

However, the retries and redirect parameters are ignored with Pyodide; the runtime itself determines redirect behavior.

Affected usages

Any code which relies on urllib3 to control the number of redirects for an HTTP request in a Pyodide runtime.

Impact

Redirects are often used to exploit SSRF vulnerabilities. An application attempting to mitigate SSRF or open redirect vulnerabilities by disabling redirects may remain vulnerable if a Pyodide runtime redirect mechanism is unsuitable.

Remediation

If you use urllib3 in Node.js, upgrade to a patched version of urllib3.

Unfortunately, browsers provide no suitable way which urllib3 can use: XMLHttpRequest provides no control over redirects, the Fetch API returns opaqueredirect responses lacking data when redirects are controlled manually. Expect default browser behavior for redirects.

CVE-2025-50181

urllib3 handles redirects and retries using the same mechanism, which is controlled by the Retry object. The most common way to disable redirects is at the request level, as follows:

resp = urllib3.request("GET", "https://httpbin.org/redirect/1", redirect=False)
print(resp.status)

# 302

However, it is also possible to disable redirects, for all requests, by instantiating a PoolManager and specifying retries in a way that disable redirects:

import urllib3

http = urllib3.PoolManager(retries=0)  # should raise MaxRetryError on redirect
http = urllib3.PoolManager(retries=urllib3.Retry(redirect=0))  # equivalent to the above
http = urllib3.PoolManager(retries=False)  # should return the first response

resp = http.request("GET", "https://httpbin.org/redirect/1")

However, the retries parameter is currently ignored, which means all the above examples don't disable redirects.

Affected usages

Passing retries on PoolManager instantiation to disable redirects or restrict their number.

By default, requests and botocore users are not affected.

Impact

Redirects are often used to exploit SSRF vulnerabilities. An application attempting to mitigate SSRF or open redirect vulnerabilities by disabling redirects at the PoolManager level will remain vulnerable.

Remediation

You can remediate this vulnerability with the following steps:

• Upgrade to a patched version of urllib3. If your organization would benefit from the continued support of urllib3 1.x, please contact [email protected] to discuss sponsorship or contribution opportunities.
• Disable redirects at the request() level instead of the PoolManager() level.

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

Features

• Added support for the compression.zstd module that is new in Python 3.14.
  See PEP 784 <https://peps.python.org/pep-0784/>_ for more information. (#&#8203;3610 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/3610>__)
• Added support for version 0.5 of hatch-vcs (#&#8203;3612 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/3612>__)

Bugfixes

• Fixed a security issue where restricting the maximum number of followed
  redirects at the urllib3.PoolManager level via the retries parameter
  did not work.
• Made the Node.js runtime respect redirect parameters such as retries
  and redirects.
• Raised exception for HTTPResponse.shutdown on a connection already released to the pool. (#&#8203;3581 <https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/3581>__)
