Senthil Kumaran added the comment: Hi Hans-Peter,
In 3.3 (95b09ccc8a3e) and 3.4 (3c19023c9fec) the change completely removes any variant of http_proxy if REQUEST_METHOD is set. The only way to have http based proxy in cgi environment by using ProxyHandler method. This is solution introduced for the security fix. If I backport your patch from issue26804, I imagined that we will be introducing a new feature for other environment variables like NO_PROXY, which folks might be prepared for in the security fix release. That was my concern in not making the other change. Hope this reasoning helps. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27568> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
