Details:

moderate severity Vulnerable versions: <= 2.19.1 Patched version: 2.20.0 The Requests package through 2.19.1 before 2018-09-14 for Python sends an HTTP Authorization header to an http URI upon receiving a same-hostname https-to-http redirect, which makes it easier for remote attackers to discover credentials by sniffing the network.
