NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python3-lxml-debuginfo package and not the python3-lxml-debuginfo package as distributed by Rocky-Linux.

http.client in Python 3.x before 3.5.10, 3.6.x before 3.6.12, 3.7.x before 3.7.9, and 3.8.x before 3.8.5 allows CRLF injection if the attacker controls the HTTP request method, as demonstrated by inserting CR and LF control characters in the first argument of HTTPConnection.request.
