Fedora 43 : python-pulp-glue / python-requests (2026-8ad863685a)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 316635

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Fedora 43 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the FEDORA-2026-8ad863685a advisory.

 2.33.1 (2026-03-30)
 -------------------

 **Bugfixes**
 - Fixed test cleanup for CVE-2026-25645 to avoid leaving unnecessary files in the tmp directory.
 - Fixed Content-Type header parsing for malformed values.
 - Improved error consistency for malformed header values.

 2.33.0 (2026-03-25)
 -------------------

 **Announcements**
 - Requests is adding inline types. If you have a typed code base that uses Requests, please take a look at [#7271](https://github.com/psf/requests/issues/7271).
 Give it a try, and report any gaps or feedback you may have in the issue.

**Security**
 - [CVE-2026-25645](https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-25645) `requests.utils.extract_zipped_paths` now extracts contents to a non-deterministic location to prevent malicious file replacement. This does not affect default usage of Requests, only applications calling the utility function directly.

 **Improvements**
 - Migrated to a PEP 517 build system using setuptools.

 **Bugfixes**
 - Fixed an issue where an empty netrc entry could cause malformed authentication to be applied to Requests on Python 3.11+.

 **Deprecations**
 - Dropped support for Python 3.9 following its end of support.

 **Documentation**
 - Various typo fixes and doc improvements.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected python-pulp-glue and / or python-requests packages.
