CVE-2022-0391:

A flaw was found in Python, specifically within the urllib.parse module. This module helps break Uniform Resource Locator (URL) strings into components. The issue involves how the urlparse method does not sanitize input and allows characters like '\r' and '\n' in the URL path. This flaw allows an attacker to input a crafted URL, leading to injection attacks. This flaw affects Python versions prior to 3.10.0b1, 3.9.5, 3.8.11, 3.7.11 and 3.6.14.

Didn't we have a bug for this one already?

Comment 2 Niklāvs Koļesņikovs 2022-02-20 17:28:15 UTC

All versions listed in the initial comment as being affected are no longer present in the tree, meaning this bug is probably no longer relevant to Gentoo.

Yep, looks like a dupe of bug 811165, moving CVE there.
