Descriptions

In httplib2 before version 0.18.0, an attacker controlling unescaped part of uri for `httplib2.Http.request()` could change request headers and body, send additional hidden requests to same server. This vulnerability impacts software that uses httplib2 with uri constructed by string concatenation, as opposed to proper urllib building with escaping. This has been fixed in 0.18.0.

En httplib2 versiones anteriores a 0.18.0, un atacante controla una parte no escapada de un uri para la función "httplib2.Http.request()" podía cambiar los encabezados y el cuerpo de las peticiones, enviar peticiones ocultas adicionales hacia el mismo servidor. Esta vulnerabilidad impacta al software que usa httplib2 con un uri construido mediante una concatenación en cadena, a diferencia de una construcción apropiada de urllib con escape. Esto ha sido corregido en la versión 0.18.0.
