On behalf of the Twisted contributors I announce the release candidate of
Twisted 24.7.0.

This is a release triggered by the following security bugfixes:

- twisted.web.util.redirectTo now HTML-escapes the provided URL in the
fallback response body it returns (GHSA-cf56-g6w6-pqq2, CVE-2024-41810).
(#9839)
- The HTTP 1.0 and 1.1 server provided by twisted.web could process
pipelined HTTP requests out-of-order, possibly resulting in information
disclosure (CVE-2024-41671/GHSA-c8m8-j448-xjx7) (#12248)
- twisted.web.util.redirectTo now HTML-escapes the provided URL in the
fallback response body it returns (GHSA-cf56-g6w6-pqq2). The issue is being
tracked with CVE-2024-41810. (#12263)

The subjective notable changes are:

- Many performance improvements, pioneered by Itamar
- twisted.internet.defer.inlineCallbacks can now yield a coroutine. (#9972)
- The HTTP 1.0/1.1 server provided by twisted.web is now more picky about
the first line of a request, improving compliance with RFC 9112. (#12233)
- The HTTP 1.0/1.1 server provided by twisted.web now contains the
characters set of HTTP header names, improving compliance with RFC 9110.
(#12235)
- twisted.web.util.ChildRedirector, which has never worked on Python 3, has
been removed. (#9591)
