[issue11662] Redirect vulnerability in urllib/urllib2

[Guido van Rossum]

Guido van Rossum <guido at python.org> added the comment:

I am okay with adding FTP to the list.

I still don't think we should raise URLError on the bad redirect; we should treat it the same as a missing URI/Location header, and it will raise HTTPError.
