Issue Requests vulnerable to .netrc credentials leak via malicious URLs: CVE-2024-47081
Ecosystem PyPI
Dependency requests
Dependency Paths requests 2.32.0
Direct Dependency Yes
Upgrade 2.32.4

Impact

Due to a URL parsing issue, Requests releases prior to 2.32.4 may leak .netrc credentials to third parties for specific maliciously-crafted URLs.

Workarounds

For older versions of Requests, use of the .netrc file can be disabled with trust_env=False on your Requests Session (docs).

Severity Medium
Issue Requests has Insecure Temp File Reuse in its extract_zipped_paths() utility function: CVE-2026-25645
Ecosystem PyPI
Dependency requests
Dependency Paths requests 2.32.0
Direct Dependency Yes
Upgrade 2.33.0

Impact

The requests.utils.extract_zipped_paths() utility function uses a predictable filename when extracting files from zip archives into the system temporary directory. If the target file already exists, it is reused without validation. A local attacker with write access to the temp directory could pre-create a malicious file that would be loaded in place of the legitimate one.

Affected usages

Standard usage of the Requests library is not affected by this vulnerability. Only applications that call extract_zipped_paths() directly are impacted.

Remediation

Upgrade to at least Requests 2.33.0, where the library now extracts files to a non-deterministic location.

If developers are unable to upgrade, they can set TMPDIR in their environment to a directory with restricted write access.
