This was patched in #2398 and will be resolved in the next release. I apologize for the delay. Hopefully running pip install git+https://github.com/dpkp/kafka-python.git could fulfill your needs in the meantime.

Please understand that I am doing everything within my means to get a release out to the public.

Is there an idea of when the next release will be out?

Hi @wbarnha ,
The issue still persists and I am facing the same issue, can you pls provide an update when the fix will be rolloed out.
Thanks

wbarnha · 2024-03-04T15:06:51Z

I am aware of the issue. Please refer to #2412 (comment).

VishnuBhaarath · 2024-03-04T15:09:53Z

Thanks for it @wbarnha , I downgraded my python version and got it rectified.

ankibunkers · 2024-04-01T19:03:37Z

Did we ever merge this fix in for 3.12?

@wbarnha Thank you William for your support here.
Installing python -m pip install --break-system-packages git+https://github.com/dpkp/kafka-python.git still is not resolving the issue.

i can not downgrade python 3.11 due to a HIGH vulnerability with ecdsa pacakge. Any work around solution for this problem at the moment?

The current workaround solution would be to replace your kafka-python installation with my fork at kafka-python-ng for now.

Unfortunately kafka-python seems to be having maintenance issues: dpkp/kafka-python#2431 And it cannot be installed on Python 3.12: dpkp/kafka-python#2412

ssbarnea · 2024-08-08T19:53:32Z

Can we please reopen this bug because a critical bug like this should not be closed until the fix is released. I would even pin it after reopening it, just to remind everyone about it.

winniegr · 2024-08-21T03:51:51Z

I also have the same issue

pauliverson · 2024-08-22T11:28:09Z

i meet this problem in python3.12 kafka-python 2.0.2，so how to solve this problem

wbarnha · 2024-08-23T13:29:26Z

It's a fair point, and since there's a demand to reopen this, I'll oblige!

gwenshap · 2024-09-14T01:35:05Z

This is still not fixed, and have been open for a year now.
Does everyone really install from the github repo? Is it so hard to do a release?

Anyway, commenting to show additional demand. Although demand for "be able to use the library" seems self-explanatory...

csharplus · 2024-09-15T05:34:10Z

Will this fix be released in the near future? I'm using the following work-around in requirements.txt at present:

kafka-python==2.0.2; python_version < '3.12'
kafka-python @ git+https://github.com/dpkp/kafka-python.git ; python_version >= '3.12'

TarcisioOliveira2021 · 2024-10-04T16:49:01Z

Hey guys, this solved it for me:
1- Uninstall kafka-python using: pip uninstall kafka-python
2- Then run: pip install --break-system-packages git+https://github.com/dpkp/kafka-python.git

csharplus · 2024-10-04T18:31:16Z

The following code fix works for me with the current public build of kafka-python:

import sys

if sys.version_info >= (3, 12, 0):
    import six
    sys.modules['kafka.vendor.six.moves'] = six.moves

......

from kafka import KafkaConsumer, KafkaProducer

......

ernestaskardzys · 2024-10-05T11:56:48Z

@csharplus , can confirm, that your workaround helped me to resolve the issue with kafka-python:2.0.2

aHemanth123 · 2024-10-12T12:14:51Z

@csharplus, It is working.

kafka-python is tested on python 2.7, 3.4, 3.7, and pypy2.7.

bfontaine · 2024-11-25T13:17:02Z

This project has been unmaintained for almost a year; as the README suggests you might have better luck using kafka-python-ng. As multiple persons have confirmed, this workaround works.

(please stop adding "+1" comments; it’s useless and you’re notifying 20+ accounts for nothing each time)
