NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python3.5 package and not the python3.5 package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:16.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

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.
