Open redirect endpoint in Datasette prior to 0.65.2 and 1.0a21. This GitHub security advisory covers two new releases of Datasette that I shipped today, both addressing the same open redirect issue with a fix by James Jefferies.

Datasette 0.65.2 fixes the bug and also adds Python 3.14 support and a datasette publish cloudrun fix.

Datasette 1.0a21 also has that Cloud Run fix and two other small new features:

• New datasette --get /path --headers option for inspecting the headers returned by a path. (#2578)
• New datasette.client.get(..., skip_permission_checks=True) parameter to bypass permission checks when making requests using the internal client. (#2583)

I decided to include the Cloud Run deployment fix so anyone with Datasette instances deployed to Cloud Run can update them with the new patched versions.
