--------------------------

Security bug fixes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

-   Redirects to non-HTTP protocols are no longer followed. Please, see the
    `23j4-mw76-5v7h security advisory`_ for more information. (:issue:`457`)

    .. _23j4-mw76-5v7h security advisory: \ 
https://github.com/scrapy/scrapy/security/advisories/GHSA-23j4-mw76-5v7h

-   The ``Authorization`` header is now dropped on redirects to a different
    scheme (``http://`` or ``https://``) or port, even if the domain is the
    same. Please, see the `4qqq-9vqf-3h3f security advisory`_ for more
    information.

    .. _4qqq-9vqf-3h3f security advisory: \ 
https://github.com/scrapy/scrapy/security/advisories/GHSA-4qqq-9vqf-3h3f

-   When using system proxy settings that are different for ``http://`` and
    ``https://``, redirects to a different URL scheme will now also trigger the
    corresponding change in proxy settings for the redirected request. Please,
    see the `jm3v-qxmh-hxwv security advisory`_ for more information.
    (:issue:`767`)

    .. _jm3v-qxmh-hxwv security advisory: \ 
https://github.com/scrapy/scrapy/security/advisories/GHSA-jm3v-qxmh-hxwv

-   :attr:`Spider.allowed_domains <scrapy.Spider.allowed_domains>` is now
    enforced for all requests, and not only requests from spider callbacks.
    (:issue:`1042`, :issue:`2241`, :issue:`6358`)

-   :func:`~scrapy.utils.iterators.xmliter_lxml` no longer resolves XML
    entities. (:issue:`6265`)

-   defusedxml_ is now used to make
    :class:`scrapy.http.request.rpc.XmlRpcRequest` more secure.

Bug fixes
~~~~~~~~~

    favor of brotli_. (:issue:`6261`)

    .. note:: brotlipy is deprecated, both in Scrapy and upstream. Use brotli
        instead if you can.

-   Make :setting:`METAREFRESH_IGNORE_TAGS` ``["noscript"]`` by \ 
default. This
    prevents
    :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.redirect.MetaRefreshMiddleware` from
    following redirects that would not be followed by web browsers with
    JavaScript enabled. (:issue:`6342`, :issue:`6347`)

-   During :ref:`feed export <topics-feed-exports>`, do not close the
    underlying file from :ref:`built-in post-processing plugins
    <builtin-plugins>`.

    string. (:issue:`6121`, :issue:`6124`)

-   Fix :attr:`Spider.logger <scrapy.Spider.logger>` not logging custom extra
    information. (:issue:`6323`, :issue:`6324`)

-   ``robots.txt`` files with a non-UTF-8 encoding no longer prevent parsing
    the UTF-8-compatible (e.g. ASCII) parts of the document.
    (:issue:`6292`, :issue:`6298`)

-   :meth:`scrapy.http.cookies.WrappedRequest.get_header` no longer raises an
    exception if ``default`` is ``None``.
    (:issue:`6308`, :issue:`6310`)

-   :class:`~scrapy.selector.Selector` now uses
    :func:`scrapy.utils.response.get_base_url` to determine the base URL of a
    given :class:`~scrapy.http.Response`. (:issue:`6265`)

-   The :meth:`media_to_download` method of :ref:`media pipelines
    <topics-media-pipeline>` now logs exceptions before stripping them.
    (:issue:`5067`, :issue:`5068`)

-   When passing a callback to the :command:`parse` command, build the callback
    callable with the right signature.
    (:issue:`6182`)

Documentation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

-   Add a FAQ entry about :ref:`creating blank requests <faq-blank-request>`.
    (:issue:`6203`, :issue:`6208`)

-   Document that :attr:`scrapy.selector.Selector.type` can be ``"json"``.
    (:issue:`6328`, :issue:`6334`)

    deprecated ``scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.decompression`` module has been
    removed.

-   The ``Authorization`` header is now dropped on redirects to a different
    domain. Please, see the `cw9j-q3vf-hrrv security advisory`_ for more
    information.

Log message:
py-scrapy: updated to 2.8.0

Scrapy 2.8.0 (2023-02-02)
-------------------------

This is a maintenance release, with minor features, bug fixes, and cleanups.

Deprecation removals
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-   The ``scrapy.utils.gz.read1`` function, deprecated in Scrapy 2.0, has now
    been removed. Use the :meth:`~io.BufferedIOBase.read1` method of
    :class:`~gzip.GzipFile` instead.
-   The ``scrapy.utils.python.to_native_str`` function, deprecated in Scrapy
    2.0, has now been removed. Use :func:`scrapy.utils.python.to_unicode`
    instead.
-   The ``scrapy.utils.python.MutableChain.next`` method, deprecated in Scrapy
    2.0, has now been removed. Use
    :meth:`~scrapy.utils.python.MutableChain.__next__` instead.
-   The ``scrapy.linkextractors.FilteringLinkExtractor`` class, deprecated
    in Scrapy 2.0, has now been removed. Use
    :class:`LinkExtractor <scrapy.linkextractors.lxmlhtml.LxmlLinkExtractor>`
    instead.
-   Support for using environment variables prefixed with ``SCRAPY_`` to
    override settings, deprecated in Scrapy 2.0, has now been removed.
-   Support for the ``noconnect`` query string argument in proxy URLs,
    deprecated in Scrapy 2.0, has now been removed. We expect proxies that used
    to need it to work fine without it.
-   The ``scrapy.utils.python.retry_on_eintr`` function, deprecated in Scrapy
    2.3, has now been removed.
-   The ``scrapy.utils.python.WeakKeyCache`` class, deprecated in Scrapy 2.4,
    has now been removed.

Deprecations
~~~~~~~~~~~~
-   :exc:`scrapy.pipelines.images.NoimagesDrop` is now deprecated.
-   :meth:`ImagesPipeline.convert_image
    <scrapy.pipelines.images.ImagesPipeline.convert_image>` must now accept a
    ``response_body`` parameter.

New features
~~~~~~~~~~~~
-   Applied black_ coding style to files generated with the
    :command:`genspider` and :command:`startproject` commands.
    .. _black: https://black.readthedocs.io/en/stable/

-   :setting:`FEED_EXPORT_ENCODING` is now set to ``"utf-8"`` in the
    ``settings.py`` file that the :command:`startproject` command generates.
    With this value, JSON exports won’t force the use of escape sequences for
    non-ASCII characters.
-   The :class:`~scrapy.extensions.memusage.MemoryUsage` extension now logs the
    peak memory usage during checks, and the binary unit MiB is now used to
    avoid confusion.
-   The ``callback`` parameter of :class:`~scrapy.http.Request` can now be set
    to :func:`scrapy.http.request.NO_CALLBACK`, to distinguish it from
    ``None``, as the latter indicates that the default spider callback
    (:meth:`~scrapy.Spider.parse`) is to be used.

Bug fixes
~~~~~~~~~
-   Enabled unsafe legacy SSL renegotiation to fix access to some outdated
    websites.
-   Fixed STARTTLS-based email delivery not working with Twisted 21.2.0 and
    better.
-   Fixed the :meth:`finish_exporting` method of :ref:`item exporters
    <topics-exporters>` not being called for empty files.
-   Fixed HTTP/2 responses getting only the last value for a header when
    multiple headers with the same name are received.
-   Fixed an exception raised by the :command:`shell` command on some cases
    when :ref:`using asyncio <using-asyncio>`.
-   When using :class:`~scrapy.spiders.CrawlSpider`, callback keyword arguments
    (``cb_kwargs``) added to a request in the ``process_request`` callback of a
    :class:`~scrapy.spiders.Rule` will no longer be ignored.
-   The :ref:`images pipeline <images-pipeline>` no longer re-encodes JPEG
    files.
-   Fixed the handling of transparent WebP images by the :ref:`images pipeline
    <images-pipeline>`.
-   :func:`scrapy.shell.inspect_response` no longer inhibits ``SIGINT``
    (Ctrl+C).
-   :class:`LinkExtractor <scrapy.linkextractors.lxmlhtml.LxmlLinkExtractor>`
    with ``unique=False`` no longer filters out links that have identical URL
    *and* text.
-   :class:`~scrapy.downloadermiddlewares.robotstxt.RobotsTxtMiddleware` now
    ignores URL protocols that do not support ``robots.txt`` (``data://``,
    ``file://``).
-   Silenced the ``filelock`` debug log messages introduced in Scrapy 2.6.
-   Fixed the output of ``scrapy -h`` showing an unintended ``**commands**``
    line.
-   Made the active project indication in the output of :ref:`commands
    <topics-commands>` more clear.

Documentation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-   Documented how to :ref:`debug spiders from Visual Studio Code
    <debug-vscode>`.
-   Documented how :setting:`DOWNLOAD_DELAY` affects per-domain concurrency.
-   Improved consistency.
-   Fixed typos.

Quality assurance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-   Applied :ref:`black coding style <coding-style>`, sorted import statements,
    and introduced :ref:`pre-commit <scrapy-pre-commit>`.
-   Switched from :mod:`os.path` to :mod:`pathlib`.
-   Addressed many issues reported by Pylint.
-   Improved code readability.
-   Improved package metadata.
-   Removed direct invocations of ``setup.py``.
