Comment 1 Ben Beasley 2026-01-20 21:31:20 UTC
Per https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2025-66471, this is fixed in 2.6.0 and later. Fedora 43 has 2.3.0, so it is affected. The fix is probably not straightforward to backport. An update may be possible, but includes new nontrivial dependencies. See https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-urllib3/pull-request/49 for discussion.
