"Updated python-requests packages fix security vulnerabilities :

Python-requests was found to have a vulnerability, where the attacker
can retrieve the passwords from ~/.netrc file through redirect
requests, if the user has their passwords stored in the ~/.netrc file
(CVE-2014-1829).

It was discovered that the python-requests Proxy-Authorization header
was never re-evaluated when a redirect occurs. The Proxy-Authorization
header was sent to any new proxy or non-proxy destination as
redirected (CVE-2014-1830).

In python-requests before 2.6.0, a cookie without a host value set
would use the hostname for the redirected URL exposing requests users
to session fixation attacks and potentially cookie stealing
(CVE-2015-2296)."
