    Package        : python-urllib3
    Version        : 1.26.5-1~exp1+deb11u4 1.26.12-1+deb12u4
    CVE ID         : CVE-2026-44431
    Debian Bug     : 1136653

    It was discovered that python-urllib3, an HTTP library with thread-safe
    connection pooling for Python, did not strip out sensitive headers (such
    as `Authorization` or `Cookie`) during cross-origin redirects followed
    from the low-level API, which could lead to information disclosure or
    authorization bypass.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version
    1.26.5-1~exp1+deb11u4.

    For Debian 12 bookworm, this problem has been fixed in version
    1.26.12-1+deb12u4.

    We recommend that you upgrade your python-urllib3 packages.

    For the detailed security status of python-urllib3 please refer to
    its security tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/python-urllib3

    Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply
    these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be
