Reasoning for the change

This remediation was triggered by two security vulnerabilities in the idna package that posed risks to the application. The direct dependency idna==3.4 contained two in-scope vulnerabilities that required immediate patching through a version upgrade to 3.15, which addresses both issues comprehensively.

Package: idna

Vulnerabilities addressed
GHSA-jjg7-2v4v-x38h/CVE-2024-3651, GHSA-65pc-fj4g-8rjx/CVE-2026-45409

Analyze upgrade options

  • Current version: 3.4 (direct dependency)
  • Fixed version range: >= 3.15
  • Selected target version: 3.15
  • Reason for target version:
    • Version 3.15 is the lowest version that fully patches both CVE-2024-3651 (fixed in 3.7) and CVE-2026-45409 (fixed in 3.15). This version was selected to ensure complete vulnerability remediation while minimizing unnecessary upgrades. The upgrade from 3.4 to 3.15 represents a minor version bump with no dependency conflicts detected.
