How to fix?

Upgrade Scrapy to version 2.11.2 or higher.

Overview

Scrapy is a high-level web crawling and web scraping framework, used to crawl websites and extract structured data from their pages.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect') due to the improper handling of scheme-specific proxy settings during HTTP redirects. An attacker can potentially intercept sensitive information by exploiting the failure to switch proxies when redirected from HTTP to HTTPS URLs or vice versa.
