-# Security Policy
-
-If you believe you have identified a security issue with a Pallets
-project, **do not open a public issue**. To responsibly report a
-security issue, please email security@palletsprojects.com. A security
-team member will contact you acknowledging the report and how to
-continue.
-
-Be sure to include as much detail as necessary in your report. As with
-reporting normal issues, a minimal reproducible example will help the
-maintainers address the issue faster. If you are able, you may also
-include a fix for the issue generated with `git format-patch`.
-
-The current and previous release will receive security patches, with
-older versions evaluated based on usage information and severity.
-
-After fixing an issue, we will make a security release along with an
-announcement on our blog. We may obtain a CVE id as well. You may
-include a name and link if you would like to be credited for the report.

+Version 3.2.0
+-------------
+
+Unreleased
+
+-   Drop support for Python 3.9. :pr:`5730`
+-   Remove previously deprecated code: ``__version__``. :pr:`5648`
+-   ``RequestContext`` has merged with ``AppContext``. ``RequestContext`` is now
+    a deprecated alias. If an app context is already pushed, it is not reused
+    when dispatching a request. This greatly simplifies the internal code for tracking
+    the active context. :issue:`5639`
+-   Many ``Flask`` methods involved in request dispatch now take the current
+    ``AppContext`` as the first parameter, instead of using the proxy objects.
+    If subclasses were overriding these methods, the old signature is detected,
+    shows a deprecation warning, and will continue to work during the
+    deprecation period. :issue:`5815`
+-   All teardown callbacks are called, even if any raise an error. :pr:`5928`
+-   The ``should_ignore_error`` is deprecated. Handle errors as needed in
+    teardown handlers instead. :issue:`5816`
+-   ``template_filter``, ``template_test``, and ``template_global`` decorators
+    can be used without parentheses. :issue:`5729`
+-   ``redirect`` returns a ``303`` status code by default instead of ``302``.
+    This tells the client to always switch to ``GET``, rather than only
+    switching ``POST`` to ``GET``. This preserves the current behavior of
+    ``GET`` and ``POST`` redirects, and is also correct for frontend libraries
+    such as HTMX. :issue:`5895`
+-   ``provide_automatic_options=True`` can be used to enable it for a view when
+    it's disabled in config. Previously, only disabling worked. :issue:`5916`
+-   ``Flask.select_jinja_autoescape`` uses case-insensitive comparison instead
+    of only lower case file extensions. :pr:`6012`
+
+
+Version 3.1.3
+-------------
+
+Released 2026-02-18
+
+-   The session is marked as accessed for operations that only access the keys
+    but not the values, such as ``in`` and ``len``. :ghsa:`68rp-wp8r-4726`
+
+
+Version 3.1.2
+-------------
+
+Released 2025-08-19
+
+-   ``stream_with_context`` does not fail inside async views. :issue:`5774`
+-   When using ``follow_redirects`` in the test client, the final state
+    of ``session`` is correct. :issue:`5786`
+-   Relax type hint for passing bytes IO to ``send_file``. :issue:`5776`
+
+
+Version 3.1.1
+-------------
+
+Released 2025-05-13
+
+-   Fix signing key selection order when key rotation is enabled via
+    ``SECRET_KEY_FALLBACKS``. :ghsa:`4grg-w6v8-c28g`
+-   Fix type hint for ``cli_runner.invoke``. :issue:`5645`
+-   ``flask --help`` loads the app and plugins first to make sure all commands
+    are shown. :issue:`5673`
+-   Mark sans-io base class as being able to handle views that return
+    ``AsyncIterable``. This is not accurate for Flask, but makes typing easier
+    for Quart. :pr:`5659`
+
+
+Version 3.1.0
+-------------
+
+Released 2024-11-13
+
+-   Drop support for Python 3.8. :pr:`5623`
+-   Update minimum dependency versions to latest feature releases.
+    Werkzeug >= 3.1, ItsDangerous >= 2.2, Blinker >= 1.9. :pr:`5624,5633`
+-   Provide a configuration option to control automatic option
+    responses. :pr:`5496`
+-   ``Flask.open_resource``/``open_instance_resource`` and
+    ``Blueprint.open_resource`` take an ``encoding`` parameter to use when
+    opening in text mode. It defaults to ``utf-8``. :issue:`5504`
+-   ``Request.max_content_length`` can be customized per-request instead of only
+    through the ``MAX_CONTENT_LENGTH`` config. Added
+    ``MAX_FORM_MEMORY_SIZE`` and ``MAX_FORM_PARTS`` config. Added documentation
+    about resource limits to the security page. :issue:`5625`
+-   Add support for the ``Partitioned`` cookie attribute (CHIPS), with the
+    ``SESSION_COOKIE_PARTITIONED`` config. :issue:`5472`
+-   ``-e path`` takes precedence over default ``.env`` and ``.flaskenv`` files.
+    ``load_dotenv`` loads default files in addition to a path unless
+    ``load_defaults=False`` is passed. :issue:`5628`
+-   Support key rotation with the ``SECRET_KEY_FALLBACKS`` config, a list of old
+    secret keys that can still be used for unsigning. Extensions will need to
+    add support. :issue:`5621`
+-   Fix how setting ``host_matching=True`` or ``subdomain_matching=False``
+    interacts with ``SERVER_NAME``. Setting ``SERVER_NAME`` no longer restricts
+    requests to only that domain. :issue:`5553`
+-   ``Request.trusted_hosts`` is checked during routing, and can be set through
+    the ``TRUSTED_HOSTS`` config. :issue:`5636`
+
+
+Version 3.0.3
+-------------
+
+Released 2024-04-07
+
+-   The default ``hashlib.sha1`` may not be available in FIPS builds. Don't
+    access it at import time so the developer has time to change the default.
+    :issue:`5448`
+-   Don't initialize the ``cli`` attribute in the sansio scaffold, but rather in
+    the ``Flask`` concrete class. :pr:`5270`
+
+
+Version 3.0.2
+-------------
+
+Released 2024-02-03
+
+-   Correct type for ``jinja_loader`` property. :issue:`5388`
+-   Fix error with ``--extra-files`` and ``--exclude-patterns`` CLI options.

-How to contribute to Flask
-==========================
-
-Thank you for considering contributing to Flask!
-
-
-Support questions
------------------
-
-Please don't use the issue tracker for this. The issue tracker is a tool
-to address bugs and feature requests in Flask itself. Use one of the
-following resources for questions about using Flask or issues with your
-own code:
-
--   The ``#questions`` channel on our Discord chat:
-    https://discord.gg/pallets
--   Ask on `Stack Overflow`_. Search with Google first using:
-    ``site:stackoverflow.com flask {search term, exception message, etc.}``
--   Ask on our `GitHub Discussions`_ for long term discussion or larger
-    questions.
-
-.. _Stack Overflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/flask?tab=Frequent
-.. _GitHub Discussions: https://github.com/pallets/flask/discussions
-
-
-Reporting issues
-----------------
-
-Include the following information in your post:
-
--   Describe what you expected to happen.
--   If possible, include a `minimal reproducible example`_ to help us
-    identify the issue. This also helps check that the issue is not with
-    your own code.
--   Describe what actually happened. Include the full traceback if there
-    was an exception.
--   List your Python and Flask versions. If possible, check if this
-    issue is already fixed in the latest releases or the latest code in
-    the repository.
-
-.. _minimal reproducible example: https://stackoverflow.com/help/minimal-reproducible-example
-
-
-Submitting patches
-------------------
-
-If there is not an open issue for what you want to submit, prefer
-opening one for discussion before working on a PR. You can work on any
-issue that doesn't have an open PR linked to it or a maintainer assigned
-to it. These show up in the sidebar. No need to ask if you can work on
-an issue that interests you.
-
-Include the following in your patch:
-
--   Use `Black`_ to format your code. This and other tools will run
-    automatically if you install `pre-commit`_ using the instructions
-    below.
--   Include tests if your patch adds or changes code. Make sure the test
-    fails without your patch.
--   Update any relevant docs pages and docstrings. Docs pages and
-    docstrings should be wrapped at 72 characters.
--   Add an entry in ``CHANGES.rst``. Use the same style as other
-    entries. Also include ``.. versionchanged::`` inline changelogs in
-    relevant docstrings.

-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-`GitHub Codespaces`_ creates a development environment that is already set up for the
-project. By default it opens in Visual Studio Code for the Web, but this can
-be changed in your GitHub profile settings to use Visual Studio Code or JetBrains
-PyCharm on your local computer.
-
--   Make sure you have a `GitHub account`_.
--   From the project's repository page, click the green "Code" button and then "Create
-    codespace on main".
--   The codespace will be set up, then Visual Studio Code will open. However, you'll
-    need to wait a bit longer for the Python extension to be installed. You'll know it's
-    ready when the terminal at the bottom shows that the virtualenv was activated.
--   Check out a branch and `start coding`_.

+The App and Request Context
+===========================
 
-The Application Context
-=======================
+The context keeps track of data and objects during a request, CLI command, or
+other activity. Rather than passing this data around to every function, the
+:data:`.current_app`, :data:`.g`, :data:`.request`, and :data:`.session` proxies
+are accessed instead.
 
-The application context keeps track of the application-level data during
-a request, CLI command, or other activity. Rather than passing the
-application around to each function, the :data:`current_app` and
-:data:`g` proxies are accessed instead.
+When handling a request, the context is referred to as the "request context"
+because it contains request data in addition to application data. Otherwise,
+such as during a CLI command, it is referred to as the "app context". During an
+app context, :data:`.current_app` and :data:`.g` are available, while during a
+request context :data:`.request` and :data:`.session` are also available.
 
-This is similar to :doc:`/reqcontext`, which keeps track of
-request-level data during a request. A corresponding application context
-is pushed when a request context is pushed.
 
 Purpose of the Context
 ----------------------
 
-The :class:`Flask` application object has attributes, such as
-:attr:`~Flask.config`, that are useful to access within views and
-:doc:`CLI commands </cli>`. However, importing the ``app`` instance
-within the modules in your project is prone to circular import issues.
-When using the :doc:`app factory pattern </patterns/appfactories>` or
-writing reusable :doc:`blueprints </blueprints>` or
-:doc:`extensions </extensions>` there won't be an ``app`` instance to
-import at all.
+The context and proxies help solve two development issues: circular imports, and
+passing around global data during a request.
 
-Flask solves this issue with the *application context*. Rather than
-referring to an ``app`` directly, you use the :data:`current_app`
-proxy, which points to the application handling the current activity.
+The :class:`.Flask` application object has attributes, such as
+:attr:`~.Flask.config`, that are useful to access within views and other
+functions. However, importing the ``app`` instance within the modules in your
+project is prone to circular import issues. When using the
+:doc:`app factory pattern </patterns/appfactories>` or writing reusable
+:doc:`blueprints </blueprints>` or :doc:`extensions </extensions>` there won't
+be an ``app`` instance to import at all.
 
-Flask automatically *pushes* an application context when handling a
-request. View functions, error handlers, and other functions that run
-during a request will have access to :data:`current_app`.
+When the application handles a request, it creates a :class:`.Request` object.
+Because a *worker* handles only one request at a time, the request data can be
+considered global to that worker during that request. Passing it as an argument
+through every function during the request becomes verbose and redundant.
 
-Flask will also automatically push an app context when running CLI
-commands registered with :attr:`Flask.cli` using ``@app.cli.command()``.
+Flask solves these issues with the *active context* pattern. Rather than
+importing an ``app`` directly, or having to pass it and the request through to
+every single function, you import and access the proxies, which point to the
+currently active application and request data. This is sometimes referred to
+as "context local" data.
 
 
-Lifetime of the Context
------------------------
+Context During Setup
+--------------------
 
-The application context is created and destroyed as necessary. When a
-Flask application begins handling a request, it pushes an application
-context and a :doc:`request context </reqcontext>`. When the request
-ends it pops the request context then the application context.
-Typically, an application context will have the same lifetime as a
-request.
-
-See :doc:`/reqcontext` for more information about how the contexts work
-and the full life cycle of a request.

-Storing Data
-------------
+Context During Testing
+----------------------
 
-The application context is a good place to store common data during a
-request or CLI command. Flask provides the :data:`g object <g>` for this
-purpose. It is a simple namespace object that has the same lifetime as
-an application context.
+See :doc:`/testing` for detailed information about managing the context during
+tests.
 
-.. note::
-    The ``g`` name stands for "global", but that is referring to the
-    data being global *within a context*. The data on ``g`` is lost

-Events and Signals
-------------------
+.. _context-visibility:
 
-The application will call functions registered with :meth:`~Flask.teardown_appcontext`
-when the application context is popped.
+Visibility of the Context
+-------------------------
 
-The following signals are sent: :data:`appcontext_pushed`,
-:data:`appcontext_tearing_down`, and :data:`appcontext_popped`.
+The context will have the same lifetime as an activity, such as a request, CLI
+command, or ``with`` block. Various callbacks and signals registered with the
+app will be run during the context.
+
+When a Flask application handles a request, it pushes a request context
+to set the active application and request data. When it handles a CLI command,
+it pushes an app context to set the active application. When the activity ends,
+it pops that context. Proxy objects like :data:`.request`, :data:`.session`,
+:data:`.g`, and :data:`.current_app`, are accessible while the context is pushed
+and active, and are not accessible after the context is popped.
+
+The context is unique to each thread (or other worker type). The proxies cannot
+be passed to another worker, which has a different context space and will not
+know about the active context in the parent's space.
+
+Besides being scoped to each worker, the proxy object has a separate type and
+identity than the proxied real object. In some cases you'll need access to the
+real object, rather than the proxy. Use the
+:meth:`~.LocalProxy._get_current_object` method in those cases.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    app = current_app._get_current_object()
+    my_signal.send(app)
+
+
+Lifecycle of the Context
+------------------------
+
+Flask dispatches a request in multiple stages which can affect the request,
+response, and how errors are handled. See :doc:`/lifecycle` for a list of all
+the steps, callbacks, and signals during each request. The following are the
+steps directly related to the context.
+
+-   The app context is pushed, the proxies are available.
+-   The :data:`.appcontext_pushed` signal is sent.
+-   The request is dispatched.
+-   Any :meth:`.Flask.teardown_request` decorated functions are called.
+-   The :data:`.request_tearing_down` signal is sent.
+-   Any :meth:`.Flask.teardown_appcontext` decorated functions are called.
+-   The :data:`.appcontext_tearing_down` signal is sent.
+-   The app context is popped, the proxies are no longer available.
+-   The :data:`.appcontext_popped` signal is sent.
+
+The teardown callbacks are called by the context when it is popped. They are
+called even if there is an unhandled exception during dispatch. They may be
+called multiple times in some test scenarios. This means there is no guarantee
+that any other parts of the request dispatch have run. Be sure to write these
+functions in a way that does not depend on other callbacks. All callbacks are
+called even if any raise an error.
+
+
+How the Context Works
+---------------------
+
+Context locals are implemented using Python's :mod:`contextvars` and Werkzeug's
+:class:`~werkzeug.local.LocalProxy`. Python's contextvars are a low level
+structure to manage data local to a thread or coroutine. ``LocalProxy`` wraps
+the contextvar so that access to any attributes and methods is forwarded to the
+object stored in the contextvar.
+
+The context is tracked like a stack, with the active context at the top of the
+stack. Flask manages pushing and popping contexts during requests, CLI commands,
+testing, ``with`` blocks, etc. The proxies access attributes on the active
+context.
+
+Because it is a stack, other contexts may be pushed to change the proxies during
+an already active context. This is not a common pattern, but can be used in
+advanced use cases. For example, a Flask application can be used as WSGI
+middleware, calling another wrapped Flask app from a view.

+Async with Gevent
+=================
+
+`Gevent`_ patches Python's standard library to run within special async workers
+called `greenlets`_. Gevent has existed since long before Python's native
+asyncio was available, and Flask has always worked with it.
+
+.. _gevent: https://www.gevent.org
+.. _greenlets: https://greenlet.readthedocs.io
+
+Gevent is a reliable way to handle numerous, long lived, concurrent connections,
+and to achieve similar capabilities to ASGI and asyncio. This works without
+needing to write ``async def`` or ``await`` anywhere, but relies on gevent and
+greenlet's low level manipulation of the Python interpreter.
+
+Deciding whether you should use gevent with Flask, or `Quart`_, or something
+else, is ultimately up to understanding the specific needs of your project.
+
+.. _quart: https://quart.palletsprojects.com
+
+
+Enabling gevent
+---------------
+
+You need to apply gevent's patching as early as possible in your code. This
+enables gevent's underlying event loop and converts many Python internals to run
+inside it. Add the following at the top of your project's module or top
+``__init__.py``:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    import gevent.monkey
+    gevent.monkey.patch_all()

+When deploying in production, use :doc:`/deploying/gunicorn` or

+
+Combining with ``async``/``await``
+----------------------------------
+
+Gevent's patching does not interact well with Flask's built-in asyncio support.
+If you want to use Gevent and asyncio in the same app, you'll need to override
+:meth:`flask.Flask.async_to_sync` to run async functions inside gevent.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    import gevent.monkey
+    gevent.monkey.patch_all()
+
+    import asyncio
+    from flask import Flask, request
+
+    loop = asyncio.EventLoop()
+    gevent.spawn(loop.run_forever)
+
+    class GeventFlask(Flask):
+        def async_to_sync(self, func):
+            def run(*args, **kwargs):
+                coro = func(*args, **kwargs)
+                future = asyncio.run_coroutine_threadsafe(coro, loop)
+                return future.result()
+
+            return run
+
+    app = GeventFlask(__name__)
+
+    @app.get("/")
+    async def greet():
+        await asyncio.sleep(1)
+        return f"Hello, {request.args.get("name", "World")}!"
+
+This starts an asyncio event loop in a gevent worker. Async functions are
+scheduled on that event loop. This may still have limitations, and may need to
+be modified further when using other asyncio implementations.
+
+
+libuv
+~~~~~
+
+`libuv`_ is another event loop implementation that `gevent supports`_. There's
+also a project called `uvloop`_ that enables libuv in asyncio. If you want to
+use libuv, use gevent's support, not uvloop. It may be possible to further
+modify the ``async_to_sync`` code from the previous section to work with uvloop,
+but that's not currently known.
+
+.. _libuv: https://libuv.org/
+.. _gevent supports: https://www.gevent.org/loop_impls.html
+.. _uvloop: https://uvloop.readthedocs.io/
+
+To enable gevent's libuv support, add the following at the *very* top of your
+code, before ``gevent.monkey.patch_all()``:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    import gevent
+    gevent.config.loop = "libuv"

-Context Locals
-``````````````
-
-.. admonition:: Insider Information
-
-   If you want to understand how that works and how you can implement
-   tests with context locals, read this section, otherwise just skip it.
-
-Certain objects in Flask are global objects, but not of the usual kind.
-These objects are actually proxies to objects that are local to a specific
-context.  What a mouthful.  But that is actually quite easy to understand.
-
-Imagine the context being the handling thread.  A request comes in and the
-web server decides to spawn a new thread (or something else, the
-underlying object is capable of dealing with concurrency systems other
-than threads).  When Flask starts its internal request handling it
-figures out that the current thread is the active context and binds the
-current application and the WSGI environments to that context (thread).
-It does that in an intelligent way so that one application can invoke another
-application without breaking.
-
-So what does this mean to you?  Basically you can completely ignore that
-this is the case unless you are doing something like unit testing.  You
-will notice that code which depends on a request object will suddenly break
-because there is no request object.  The solution is creating a request
-object yourself and binding it to the context.  The easiest solution for
-unit testing is to use the :meth:`~flask.Flask.test_request_context`
-context manager.  In combination with the ``with`` statement it will bind a
-test request so that you can interact with it.  Here is an example::
+.. code-block:: python
 
     from flask import request
 
-    with app.test_request_context('/hello', method='POST'):
-        # now you can do something with the request until the
-        # end of the with block, such as basic assertions:
-        assert request.path == '/hello'
-        assert request.method == 'POST'
+If you have some experience with Python you might be wondering how that object
+can be global when Flask handles multiple requests at a time. The answer is
+that :data:`.request` is actually a proxy, pointing at whatever request is
+currently being handled by a given worker, which is managed internally by Flask
+and Python. See :doc:`/appcontext` for much more information.
 
-The other possibility is passing a whole WSGI environment to the
-:meth:`~flask.Flask.request_context` method::
+The current request method is available in the :attr:`~.Request.method`
+attribute. To access form data (data transmitted in a ``POST`` or ``PUT``
+request), use the :attr:`~flask.Request.form` attribute, which behaves like a
+dict.

-The Request Object
-``````````````````
-
-The request object is documented in the API section and we will not cover
-it here in detail (see :class:`~flask.Request`). Here is a broad overview of
-some of the most common operations.  First of all you have to import it from
-the ``flask`` module::
-
-    from flask import request
-
-The current request method is available by using the
-:attr:`~flask.Request.method` attribute.  To access form data (data
-transmitted in a ``POST`` or ``PUT`` request) you can use the
-:attr:`~flask.Request.form` attribute.  Here is a full example of the two
-attributes mentioned above::
-
-    @app.route('/login', methods=['POST', 'GET'])
+    @app.route("/login", methods=["GET", "POST"])
     def login():
         error = None
-        if request.method == 'POST':
-            if valid_login(request.form['username'],
-                           request.form['password']):
-                return log_the_user_in(request.form['username'])
+
+        if request.method == "POST":
+            if valid_login(request.form["username"], request.form["password"]):
+                return store_login(request.form["username"])
             else:

-        return render_template('login.html', error=error)
+                error = "Invalid username or password"
 
-What happens if the key does not exist in the ``form`` attribute?  In that
-case a special :exc:`KeyError` is raised.  You can catch it like a
-standard :exc:`KeyError` but if you don't do that, a HTTP 400 Bad Request
-error page is shown instead.  So for many situations you don't have to
-deal with that problem.
+        # Executed if the request method was GET or the credentials were invalid.
+        return render_template("login.html", error=error)
 
-To access parameters submitted in the URL (``?key=value``) you can use the
-:attr:`~flask.Request.args` attribute::
+If the key does not exist in ``form``, a special :exc:`KeyError` is raised. You
+can catch it like a normal ``KeyError``, otherwise it will return a HTTP 400

 The Request Context
 ===================
 
-The request context keeps track of the request-level data during a
-request. Rather than passing the request object to each function that
-runs during a request, the :data:`request` and :data:`session` proxies
-are accessed instead.
-
-This is similar to :doc:`/appcontext`, which keeps track of the
-application-level data independent of a request. A corresponding
-application context is pushed when a request context is pushed.
-
-
-Purpose of the Context
-----------------------
-
-When the :class:`Flask` application handles a request, it creates a
-:class:`Request` object based on the environment it received from the
-WSGI server. Because a *worker* (thread, process, or coroutine depending
-on the server) handles only one request at a time, the request data can
-be considered global to that worker during that request. Flask uses the
-term *context local* for this.
-
-Flask automatically *pushes* a request context when handling a request.
-View functions, error handlers, and other functions that run during a
-request will have access to the :data:`request` proxy, which points to
-the request object for the current request.
-
-
-Lifetime of the Context
------------------------
-
-When a Flask application begins handling a request, it pushes a request
-context, which also pushes an :doc:`app context </appcontext>`. When the
-request ends it pops the request context then the application context.
-
-The context is unique to each thread (or other worker type).
-:data:`request` cannot be passed to another thread, the other thread has
-a different context space and will not know about the request the parent
-thread was pointing to.
-
-Context locals are implemented using Python's :mod:`contextvars` and
-Werkzeug's :class:`~werkzeug.local.LocalProxy`. Python manages the
-lifetime of context vars automatically, and local proxy wraps that
-low-level interface to make the data easier to work with.
-
-
-Manually Push a Context
------------------------
-
-If you try to access :data:`request`, or anything that uses it, outside
-a request context, you'll get this error message:
-
-.. code-block:: pytb
-
-    RuntimeError: Working outside of request context.
-
-    This typically means that you attempted to use functionality that
-    needed an active HTTP request. Consult the documentation on testing
-    for information about how to avoid this problem.
-
-This should typically only happen when testing code that expects an
-active request. One option is to use the
-:meth:`test client <Flask.test_client>` to simulate a full request. Or
-you can use :meth:`~Flask.test_request_context` in a ``with`` block, and
-everything that runs in the block will have access to :data:`request`,
-populated with your test data. ::
-
-    def generate_report(year):
-        format = request.args.get("format")
-        ...
-
-    with app.test_request_context(
-        "/make_report/2017", query_string={"format": "short"}
-    ):
-        generate_report()
-
-If you see that error somewhere else in your code not related to
-testing, it most likely indicates that you should move that code into a
-view function.
-
-For information on how to use the request context from the interactive
-Python shell, see :doc:`/shell`.
-
-
-How the Context Works
----------------------
-
-The :meth:`Flask.wsgi_app` method is called to handle each request. It
-manages the contexts during the request. Internally, the request and
-application contexts work like stacks. When contexts are pushed, the
-proxies that depend on them are available and point at information from
-the top item.
-
-When the request starts, a :class:`~ctx.RequestContext` is created and
-pushed, which creates and pushes an :class:`~ctx.AppContext` first if
-a context for that application is not already the top context. While
-these contexts are pushed, the :data:`current_app`, :data:`g`,
-:data:`request`, and :data:`session` proxies are available to the
-original thread handling the request.
-
-Other contexts may be pushed to change the proxies during a request.
-While this is not a common pattern, it can be used in advanced
-applications to, for example, do internal redirects or chain different
-applications together.
-
-After the request is dispatched and a response is generated and sent,
-the request context is popped, which then pops the application context.
-Immediately before they are popped, the :meth:`~Flask.teardown_request`
-and :meth:`~Flask.teardown_appcontext` functions are executed. These
-execute even if an unhandled exception occurred during dispatch.
-
-
-.. _callbacks-and-errors:
-
-Callbacks and Errors
---------------------
-
-Flask dispatches a request in multiple stages which can affect the
-request, response, and how errors are handled. The contexts are active
-during all of these stages.
-
-A :class:`Blueprint` can add handlers for these events that are specific
-to the blueprint. The handlers for a blueprint will run if the blueprint
-owns the route that matches the request.
-
-#.  Before each request, :meth:`~Flask.before_request` functions are
-    called. If one of these functions return a value, the other
-    functions are skipped. The return value is treated as the response
-    and the view function is not called.
-
-#.  If the :meth:`~Flask.before_request` functions did not return a
-    response, the view function for the matched route is called and
-    returns a response.
-
-#.  The return value of the view is converted into an actual response
-    object and passed to the :meth:`~Flask.after_request`
-    functions. Each function returns a modified or new response object.
-
-#.  After the response is returned, the contexts are popped, which calls
-    the :meth:`~Flask.teardown_request` and
-    :meth:`~Flask.teardown_appcontext` functions. These functions are
-    called even if an unhandled exception was raised at any point above.
-
-If an exception is raised before the teardown functions, Flask tries to
-match it with an :meth:`~Flask.errorhandler` function to handle the
-exception and return a response. If no error handler is found, or the
-handler itself raises an exception, Flask returns a generic
-``500 Internal Server Error`` response. The teardown functions are still
-called, and are passed the exception object.
-
-If debug mode is enabled, unhandled exceptions are not converted to a
-``500`` response and instead are propagated to the WSGI server. This
-allows the development server to present the interactive debugger with
-the traceback.
-
-
-Teardown Callbacks
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-The teardown callbacks are independent of the request dispatch, and are
-instead called by the contexts when they are popped. The functions are
-called even if there is an unhandled exception during dispatch, and for
-manually pushed contexts. This means there is no guarantee that any
-other parts of the request dispatch have run first. Be sure to write
-these functions in a way that does not depend on other callbacks and
-will not fail.
-
-During testing, it can be useful to defer popping the contexts after the
-request ends, so that their data can be accessed in the test function.
-Use the :meth:`~Flask.test_client` as a ``with`` block to preserve the
-contexts until the ``with`` block exits.
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-    from flask import Flask, request
-
-    app = Flask(__name__)
-
-    @app.route('/')
-    def hello():
-        print('during view')
-        return 'Hello, World!'
-
-    @app.teardown_request
-    def show_teardown(exception):
-        print('after with block')
-
-    with app.test_request_context():
-        print('during with block')
-
-    # teardown functions are called after the context with block exits
-
-    with app.test_client() as client:
-        client.get('/')
-        # the contexts are not popped even though the request ended
-        print(request.path)
-
-    # the contexts are popped and teardown functions are called after
-    # the client with block exits
-
-Signals
-~~~~~~~
-
-The following signals are sent:
-
-#.  :data:`request_started` is sent before the :meth:`~Flask.before_request` functions
-    are called.
-#.  :data:`request_finished` is sent after the :meth:`~Flask.after_request` functions
-    are called.
-#.  :data:`got_request_exception` is sent when an exception begins to be handled, but
-    before an :meth:`~Flask.errorhandler` is looked up or called.
-#.  :data:`request_tearing_down` is sent after the :meth:`~Flask.teardown_request`
-    functions are called.

-Notes On Proxies
-----------------
-
-Some of the objects provided by Flask are proxies to other objects. The
-proxies are accessed in the same way for each worker thread, but
-point to the unique object bound to each worker behind the scenes as
-described on this page.
-
-Most of the time you don't have to care about that, but there are some
-exceptions where it is good to know that this object is actually a proxy:
-
--   The proxy objects cannot fake their type as the actual object types.
-    If you want to perform instance checks, you have to do that on the
-    object being proxied.
--   The reference to the proxied object is needed in some situations,
-    such as sending :doc:`signals` or passing data to a background
-    thread.
-
-If you need to access the underlying object that is proxied, use the
-:meth:`~werkzeug.local.LocalProxy._get_current_object` method::
-
-    app = current_app._get_current_object()
-    my_signal.send(app)
+Obsolete, see :doc:`/appcontext` instead.

+shell with some setup done to make working with the Flask app easier.

-just import your application and start playing around.
+.. code-block:: text
 
-There are however some handy helpers to make playing around in the shell a
-more pleasant experience.  The main issue with interactive console
-sessions is that you're not triggering a request like a browser does which
-means that :data:`~flask.g`, :data:`~flask.request` and others are not
-available.  But the code you want to test might depend on them, so what
-can you do?
-
-This is where some helper functions come in handy.  Keep in mind however
-that these functions are not only there for interactive shell usage, but
-also for unit testing and other situations that require a faked request
-context.
-
-Generally it's recommended that you read :doc:`reqcontext` first.

-----------------------
-
-Starting with Flask 0.11 the recommended way to work with the shell is the

 Creating a Request Context
 --------------------------
 
+``flask shell`` pushes an app context automatically, so :data:`.current_app` and
+:data:`.g` are already available. However, there is no HTTP request being
+handled in the shell, so :data:`.request` and :data:`.session` are not yet
+available.
+
 The easiest way to create a proper request context from the shell is by
 using the :attr:`~flask.Flask.test_request_context` method which creates
 us a :class:`~flask.ctx.RequestContext`:
 
 >>> ctx = app.test_request_context()
 
-Normally you would use the ``with`` statement to make this request object
-active, but in the shell it's easier to use the
-:meth:`~flask.ctx.RequestContext.push` and
-:meth:`~flask.ctx.RequestContext.pop` methods by hand:

+Registering Filters, Tests, and Globals
+---------------------------------------
 
-If you want to register your own filters in Jinja2 you have two ways to do
-that.  You can either put them by hand into the
-:attr:`~flask.Flask.jinja_env` of the application or use the
-:meth:`~flask.Flask.template_filter` decorator.
+The Flask app and blueprints provide decorators and methods to register your own
+filters, tests, and global functions for use in Jinja templates. They all follow
+the same pattern, so the following examples only discuss filters.
 
-The two following examples work the same and both reverse an object::
+Decorate a function with :meth:`~.Flask.template_filter` to register it as a
+template filter.
 
-    @app.template_filter('reverse')
-    def reverse_filter(s):
-        return s[::-1]
+.. code-block:: python
 
-    def reverse_filter(s):

-    app.jinja_env.filters['reverse'] = reverse_filter
+    @app.template_filter
+    def reverse(s):
+        return reversed(s)
 
-In case of the decorator the argument is optional if you want to use the
-function name as name of the filter.  Once registered, you can use the filter
-in your templates in the same way as Jinja2's builtin filters, for example if
-you have a Python list in context called `mylist`::
+.. code-block:: jinja
 
-    {% for x in mylist | reverse %}
+    {% for item in data | reverse %}
     {% endfor %}
 
+By default it will use the name of the function as the name of the filter, but
+that can be changed by passing a name to the decorator.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    @app.template_filter("reverse")
+    def reverse_filter(s):
+        return reversed(s)
+
+A filter can be registered separately using :meth:`~.Flask.add_template_filter`.
+The name is optional and will use the function name if not given.

+.. code-block:: python
+
+    def reverse_filter(s):
+        return reversed(s)

+:meth:`~.Flask.add_template_test` method. For template global functions, use the
+:meth:`~.Flask.template_global` decorator or :meth:`~.Flask.add_template_global`
+method.
+
+The same methods also exist on :class:`.Blueprint`, prefixed with ``app_`` to
+indicate that the registered functions will be available to all templates, not

 Security Considerations
 =======================
 
-Web applications usually face all kinds of security problems and it's very
-hard to get everything right.  Flask tries to solve a few of these things
-for you, but there are a couple more you have to take care of yourself.
+Web applications face many types of potential security problems, and it can be
+hard to get everything right, or even to know what "right" is in general. Flask
+tries to solve a few of these things by default, but there are other parts you
+may have to take care of yourself. Many of these solutions are tradeoffs, and
+will depend on each application's specific needs and threat model. Many hosting
+platforms may take care of certain types of problems without the need for the
+Flask application to handle them.
+
+Resource Use
+------------
+
+A common category of attacks is "Denial of Service" (DoS or DDoS). This is a
+very broad category, and different variants target different layers in a
+deployed application. In general, something is done to increase how much
+processing time or memory is used to handle each request, to the point where
+there are not enough resources to handle legitimate requests.
+
+Flask provides a few configuration options to handle resource use. They can
+also be set on individual requests to customize only that request. The
+documentation for each goes into more detail.
+
+-   :data:`MAX_CONTENT_LENGTH` or :attr:`.Request.max_content_length` controls
+    how much data will be read from a request. It is not set by default,
+    although it will still block truly unlimited streams unless the WSGI server
+    indicates support.
+-   :data:`MAX_FORM_MEMORY_SIZE` or :attr:`.Request.max_form_memory_size`
+    controls how large any non-file ``multipart/form-data`` field can be. It is
+    set to 500kB by default.
+-   :data:`MAX_FORM_PARTS` or :attr:`.Request.max_form_parts` controls how many
+    ``multipart/form-data`` fields can be parsed. It is set to 1000 by default.
+    Combined with the default `max_form_memory_size`, this means that a form
+    will occupy at most 500MB of memory.
+
+Regardless of these settings, you should also review what settings are available
+from your operating system, container deployment (Docker etc), WSGI server, HTTP
+server, and hosting platform. They typically have ways to set process resource
+limits, timeouts, and other checks regardless of how Flask is configured.

+Host Header Validation
+----------------------
 
-This tells the browser to authenticate with the server using only the specific
-certificate key to prevent MITM attacks.
+The ``Host`` header is used by the client to indicate what host name the request
+was made to. This is used, for example, by ``url_for(..., _external=True)`` to
+generate full URLs, for use in email or other messages outside the browser
+window.
 
-.. warning::
-   Be careful when enabling this, as it is very difficult to undo if you set up
-   or upgrade your key incorrectly.
+By default the app doesn't know what host(s) it is allowed to be accessed
+through, and assumes any host is valid. Although browsers do not allow setting
+the ``Host`` header, requests made by attackers in other scenarios could set
+the ``Host`` header to a value they want.
 
-- https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Public_Key_Pinning
+When deploying your application, set :data:`TRUSTED_HOSTS` to restrict what
+values the ``Host`` header may be.
+
+The ``Host`` header may be modified by proxies in between the client and your
+application. See :doc:`deploying/proxy_fix` to tell your app which proxy values
+to trust.
