Carlos Alberto Lopez Perez added the comment: The python 2.7 documentation for urrlib still has a big warning notice at the top saying:
""" Warning When opening HTTPS URLs, it does not attempt to validate the server certificate. Use at your own risk! """ ^^ https://docs.python.org/2/library/urllib.html I believe this is incorrect since this patch was backported to the 2.7 branch. I checked it, and it verifies SSL certs by default. I guess the documentation for urllib should be updated to remove that warning? ---------- nosy: +clopez _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22417> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
