CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:H/E:P/RL:U/RC:CThe package python/cpython from 0 and before 3.6.13, from 3.7.0 and before 3.7.10, from 3.8.0 and before 3.8.8, from 3.9.0 and before 3.9.2 are vulnerable to Web Cache Poisoning via urllib.parse.parse_qsl and urllib.parse.parse_qs by using a vector called parameter cloaking.
