Name : python-fastapi
Product : Fedora 34
Version : 0.65.2
Release : 1.fc34
URL :
https://github.com/tiangolo/fastapi
Summary : FastAPI framework
Description :
FastAPI is a modern, fast (high-performance), web framework for building APIs
with Python 3.6+ based on standard Python type hints.
The key features are:
��� Fast: Very high performance, on par with NodeJS and Go (thanks to Starlette
and Pydantic). One of the fastest Python frameworks available.
��� Fast to code: Increase the speed to develop features by about 200% to 300%.*
��� Fewer bugs: Reduce about 40% of human (developer) induced errors.*
��� Intuitive: Great editor support. Completion everywhere. Less time
debugging.
��� Easy: Designed to be easy to use and learn. Less time reading docs.
��� Short: Minimize code duplication. Multiple features from each parameter
declaration. Fewer bugs.
��� Robust: Get production-ready code. With automatic interactive
documentation.
��� Standards-based: Based on (and fully compatible with) the open standards
for APIs: OpenAPI (previously known as Swagger) and JSON Schema.
* estimation based on tests on an internal development team, building production
applications.

Update Information:
**Security fixes** - ���� Check Content-Type request header before assuming JSON.
Initial PR [#2118](https://github.com/tiangolo/fastapi/pull/2118) by
[@patrickkwang](https://github.com/patrickkwang). This change fixes a
[
CSRF](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_request_forgery) security
vulnerability when using cookies for authentication in path operations with JSON
payloads sent by browsers. In versions lower than `0.65.2`, FastAPI would try
to read the request payload as JSON even if the `content-type` header sent was
not set to `application/json` or a compatible JSON media type (e.g.
`application/geo+json`). So, a request with a content type of `text/plain`
containing JSON data would be accepted and the JSON data would be extracted.
But requests with content type `text/plain` are exempt from
[
CORS](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS) preflights, for
being considered [Simple
requests](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-
US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS#simple_requests). So, the browser would execute them right
away including cookies, and the text content could be a JSON string that would
be parsed and accepted by the FastAPI application. See [CVE-2021-32677](https:/
/github.com/tiangolo/fastapi/security/advisories/GHSA-8h2j-cgx8-6xv7) for more
details. Thanks to [Dima
