How to Fix GHSA-373w-rj84-pv6x

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected SafeURL Python dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

SafeURL-Python fixed: 1.3 
pip install SafeURL-Python>=1.3
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

pip show SafeURL-Python

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Python environment is affected by GHSA-373w-rj84-pv6x, inspect your installed packages using pip:

pip show SafeURL-Python

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of SafeURL Python in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 1.3), your application is affected.

Note: The pip show SafeURL-Python command checks currently installed packages in your active Python environment.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under General Security Weakness. In SafeURL Python, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

### Description If a hostname was blacklisted, it was possible to bypass the blacklist by requesting the FQDN of the host (e.g. adding `.` to the end). ### Impact The main purpose of this library is to block requests to internal/private IPs and these cannot be bypassed using this finding. But if a library user had specifically set certain hostnames as blocked, then an attacker would be able to circumvent that block to cause SSRFs to request those hostnames. ### Patches Fixed by https://github.com/IncludeSecurity/safeurl-python/pull/6 ### Credit https://github.com/Sim4n6
