commit 9e77ec82c40ab59846f9447b7c483e7b8e368b16
Author: Petr Viktorin <pviktori@redhat.com>
Date: Thu Mar 4 13:59:56 2021 +0100
CVE-2021-23336: Add `separator` argument to parse_qs; warn with default
Partially backports https://bugs.python.org/issue42967 : [security] Address a web cache-poisoning issue reported in urllib.parse.parse_qsl().
However, this solution is different than the upstream solution in Python 3.6.13.
An optional argument seperator is added to specify the separator.
It is recommended to set it to '&' or ';' to match the application or proxy in use.
The default can be set with an env variable of a config file.
If neither the argument, env var or config file specifies a separator, "&" is used
but a warning is raised if parse_qs is used on input that contains ';'.
