Title:Security update for python3-requests (Moderate)
Description:
This update for python3-requests provides the following fix:

python-requests was updated to 2.20.1.

Update to version 2.20.1:

* Fixed bug with unintended Authorization header stripping for
redirects using default ports (http/80, https/443).

Update to version 2.20.0:

* Bugfixes

+ Content-Type header parsing is now case-insensitive
(e.g. charset=utf8 v Charset=utf8).
+ Fixed exception leak where certain redirect urls would raise
uncaught urllib3 exceptions.
+ Requests removes Authorization header from requests redirected
from https to http on the same hostname. (CVE-2018-18074)
+ should_bypass_proxies now handles URIs without hostnames
(e.g. files).

Update to version 2.19.1:

* Fixed issue where status_codes.py’s init function failed trying
to append to a __doc__ value of None.

Update to version 2.19.0:

* Improvements

+ Warn about possible slowdown with cryptography version < 1.3.4
+ Check host in proxy URL, before forwarding request to adapter.
+ Maintain fragments properly across redirects. (RFC7231 7.1.2)
+ Removed use of cgi module to expedite library load time.
+ Added support for SHA-256 and SHA-512 digest auth algorithms.
+ Minor performance improvement to Request.content.

* Bugfixes

+ Parsing empty Link headers with parse_header_links() no longer
return one bogus entry.
+ Fixed issue where loading the default certificate bundle from
a zip archive would raise an IOError.
+ Fixed issue with unexpected ImportError on windows system
which do not support winreg module.
+ DNS resolution in proxy bypass no longer includes the username
and password in the request. This also fixes the issue of DNS
queries failing on macOS.
+ Properly normalize adapter prefixes for url comparison.
+ Passing None as a file pointer to the files param no longer
raises an exception.
+ Calling copy on a RequestsCookieJar will now preserve the
cookie policy correctly.

Update to version 2.18.4:

* Improvements

+ Error messages for invalid headers now include the header name
for easier debugging

Update to version 2.18.3:

* Improvements
+ Running $ python -m requests.help now includes the installed
version of idna.
* Bugfixes
+ Fixed issue where Requests would raise ConnectionError instead
of SSLError when encountering SSL problems when using urllib3
v1.22.

- Add ca-certificates (and ca-certificates-mozilla) to dependencies, otherwise https
connections will fail.
