Hi @bednar
Is it possible to build a release for this? It was merged after 1.49.0 was published.

[bednar]

I want to release the new version this week or next. Stay tuned.

Is it possible to prioritise this given today's CVE?

We are pleased to announce the latest maintenance release of the v2 client:

Python - 1.50.0 - https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb-client-python/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#1500-2026-01-23
