- Summary
- Using default SSLContext for HTTPS requests in an HTTPS proxy doesn't verify certificate hostname for proxy connection

-
Impact
Users who are using an HTTPS proxy to issue HTTPS requests and haven't configured their own SSLContext via
proxy_config. Only the default SSLContext is impacted.Patches
urllib3 >=1.26.4 has the issue resolved. urllib3<1.26 is not impacted due to not supporting HTTPS requests via HTTPS proxies.
Workarounds
Upgrading is recommended as this is a minor release and not likely to break current usage.
Configuring an
SSLContextwithcheck_hostname=Trueand passing viaproxy_configinstead of relying on the defaultSSLContextFor more information
