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.
