Installation Discord Donate Documentation Nightly Master
A description of the various files is in the README
The zipimport Unix executable and release tarball contain code licensed under ISC and MIT. The PyInstaller-bundled executables are subject to these and other licenses, all of which are compiled in THIRD_PARTY_LICENSES.txt
Important changes
- The minimum required Python version has been raised to 3.11
- Python 3.10 has reached its end-of-life as of October 2026, and yt-dlp has now removed support for it. Read more
- The official Windows release binaries now require Windows 10 or later. Read more
- Security: The recent brotli and certifi vulnerabilities have now been fully addressed in the executables
- The brotli package bundled with the executables has been upgraded to version 1.2.1, and the curl-cffi package has been upgraded to version 0.17.0. These upgrades address the recent brotli security vulnerability
- curl-cffi 0.17.0 also fully addresses the recent certifi security vulnerability that was already partially addressed by upgrading the certifi package bundled with the executables

Important changes
- Security: Old yt-dlp executables are vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks
- A man-in-the-middle/MITM attack is when your internet traffic is intercepted by an attacker that impersonates the website(s) you browse and sends you malicious data instead.
- If you think you may be targeted by such an attack, it is strongly recommended to avoid using the self-updater (e.g. the -U, --update, --update-to command-line options), and instead manually download and install this release's executable.
- For more details, see the certifi security advisory

The zipimport Unix executable contains code licensed under ISC and MIT. The PyInstaller-bundled executables are subject to these and other licenses, all of which are compiled in THIRD_PARTY_LICENSES.txt
Important changes
- The minimum supported versions of Deno, Node, and Bun have been raised.
The minimum required version of Deno is now v2.3.0; supported Node versions are v22 and up; Bun support has been deprecated and limited to versions 1.2.11 through 1.3.14.
- Security
- Usage of vulnerable conversions (e.g. %()s) with the --exec option is an all-too-common pitfall. To remedy this, --exec now only allows safe conversions in its command templates.
- Most users can simply replace %(...)s with %(...)q in their --exec argument(s). Numeric conversions are unaffected by this change. Using unsafe conversions with --exec poses a significant security risk. Read more
- [CVE-2026-50019] File Downloader cookie leak with curl
- Impact is limited to users of --downloader curl; cookies are now properly passed to curl so that it respects their scope
- [CVE-2026-50023] Dangerous file type creation via insufficient filename sanitization
- Writing files with the extensions .desktop, .url, or .webloc is now only allowed in the context of --write-link functionality
- [CVE-2026-50574] Arbitrary code execution via manifest downloads with aria2c
- Impact is limited to users of --downloader aria2c
- Support for downloading HLS and DASH formats with aria2c has been removed. Users affected by this change should migrate to use -N for concurrent fragment downloads via the native downloader
