Senthil Kumaran <orsent...@gmail.com> added the comment: I disagree with this bug report.
First the responsibility of checking if something is not malicious URL lies at the application/client end, urllib in its redirection never urlopen()'s the redirected url, so you are not harmed in anyway. If you wanted to be extra careful of the BAD Server, you can always subclass the redirection methods and use those handlers. Closing this bug as won't fix. ---------- assignee: -> orsenthil resolution: -> wont fix status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7920> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
