+Subject: [PATCH 1/2] bpo-30458: Disallow control chars in http URLs.
+ (GH-12755) (GH-13154)
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Disallow control chars in http URLs in urllib2.urlopen. This
+addresses a potential security problem for applications that do not
+sanity check their URLs where http request headers could be injected.
+
+Disable https related urllib tests on a build without ssl (GH-13032)
+These tests require an SSL enabled build. Skip these tests when
+python is built without SSL to fix test failures.
+
+Use httplib.InvalidURL instead of ValueError as the new error case's
+exception. (GH-13044)
+
+Backport Co-Authored-By: Miro Hrončok <miro@hroncok.cz>
+
+(cherry picked from commit 7e200e0763f5b71c199aaf98bd5588f291585619)
+
+Notes on backport to Python 2.7:
+
+* test_urllib tests urllib.urlopen() which quotes the URL and so is
+ not vulerable to HTTP Header Injection.
+* Add tests to test_urllib2 on urllib2.urlopen().
+* Reject non-ASCII characters: range 0x80-0xff.
