pip install sopel-modules.weather>=1.2.4
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 sopel-modules.weather

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Python environment is affected by GHSA-63rq-p8fp-524q, inspect your installed packages using pip:

pip show sopel-modules.weather

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Sopel modules.weather in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 1.2.4), your application is affected.

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