Release Notes

Released on 2026-09-01.

Python

Enhancements

  • Add --no-locked and --no-frozen to disable lock modes enabled by UV_LOCKED and UV_FROZEN for a single invocation (#21408)
  • Report the exact command-line lock-mode flag in warnings and errors (#21402)

Performance

  • Speed up cold wheel installs by extracting each streaming ZIP archive in a single blocking task and reusing buffers across files (#21372)

Bug fixes

  • Update async_http_range_reader to 0.11.1 to address a potential memory-safety issue when reading metadata ranges from untrusted wheels (#21401)
  • Remove sensitive headers when redirects cross authentication realms, including same-host redirects that change URL schemes (#21382)
  • Redact secrets in signed URLs from retry diagnostics, including nested request errors (#21381)
  • Give --locked, --frozen, --check, and --check-exists precedence over conflicting UV_LOCKED and UV_FROZEN values (#21396)
  • Prevent concurrent uv processes from redundantly extracting the same local or source-built wheel (#21400)
