NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python3-test package and not the python3-test package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

The urllib.parse.urlsplit() and urlparse() functions improperly validated bracketed hosts ([]), allowing hosts that weren't IPv6 or IPvFuture. This behavior was not conformant to RFC 3986 and potentially enabled SSRF if a URL is processed by more than one URL parser.
