Message284604
The python 2.7 documentation for urrlib still has a big warning notice at the top saying:
"""
Warning
When opening HTTPS URLs, it does not attempt to validate the server certificate. Use at your own risk!
"""
^^ https://docs.python.org/2/library/urllib.html
I believe this is incorrect since this patch was backported to the 2.7 branch. I checked it, and it verifies SSL certs by default.
I guess the documentation for urllib should be updated to remove that warning? |
