Christian Heimes <li...@cheimes.de> added the comment:
Only the Python 2 urllib module is affected. Python 2.7's urllib2 also
correctly fails with local_file://
>>> import urllib2
>>> urllib2.urlopen('local_file:///etc/passwd').read()[:30]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/home/heimes/dev/python/2.7/Lib/urllib2.py", line 154, in urlopen
return opener.open(url, data, timeout)
