existing :meth:`~unittest.TestCase.assertLogs`. (Contributed by Kit Yan Choi
in :issue:`39385`.)
+urllib.parse
+------------
+
+Python versions earlier than Python 3.10 allowed using both ``;`` and ``&`` as
+query parameter separators in :func:`urllib.parse.parse_qs` and
+:func:`urllib.parse.parse_qsl`. Due to security concerns, and to conform with
+newer W3C recommendations, this has been changed to allow only a single
+separator key, with ``&`` as the default. This change also affects
+:func:`cgi.parse` and :func:`cgi.parse_multipart` as they use the affected
+functions internally. For more details, please see their respective
+documentation.
