- Removed Python 2.7 support ([EOL Jan 2020](https://www.python.org/doc/sunset-python-2/).
- Added `--offline` to allow building an HTTP request and printing it but not
actually sending it over the network.
- Replaced the old collect-all-then-process handling of HTTP communication
with one-by-one processing of each HTTP request or response as they become
available. This means that you can see headers immediately,
see what is being sent even if the request fails, etc.
- Removed automatic config file creation to avoid concurrency issues.
- Removed the default 30-second connection `--timeout` limit.
- Removed Python’ s default limit of 100 response headers.

- Added `$ALL_PROXY` documentation.
- Added type annotations throughout the codebase.
- Added `tests/` to the PyPi package for the convenience of
downstream package maintainers.
- Fixed an error when `stdin` was a closed fd.
- Improved `--debug` output formatting.
## [1.0.3](https://github.com/httpie/httpie/compare/1.0.2...1.0.3) (2019-08-26)
- Fixed CVE-2019-10751 — the way the output filename is generated for
`--download` requests without `--output` resulting in a redirect has
been changed to only consider the initial URL as the base for the generated
filename, and not the final one. This fixes a potential security issue under
the following scenario:
1. A `--download` request with no explicit `--output` is made (e.g.,
`$ http -d example.org/file.txt` ), instructing httpie to
[generate the output filename ](https://httpie.org/doc#downloaded-filename )
from the `Content-Disposition` response header, or from the URL if the header
is not provided.
2. The server handling the request has been modified by an attacker and
instead of the expected response the URL returns a redirect to another
URL, e.g., `attacker.example.org/.bash_profile` , whose response does
not provide a `Content-Disposition` header (i.e., the base for the
generated filename becomes `.bash_profile` instead of `file.txt` ).
3. Your current directory doesn’ t already contain `.bash_profile`
(i.e., no unique suffix is added to the generated filename).
4. You don’ t notice the potentially unexpected output filename
as reported by httpie in the console output
(e.g., `Downloading 100.00 B to ".bash_profile"` ).
