Calls to requests.get() and requests.post() are missing the timeout parameter

We’ve encountered issues in our production environment for weeks and after some digging, released that calls to requests.get() and requests.post() and missing the timeout parameter, causing the server to hang indefinitely on occasion if no response is received.

In our specific case, the problem is with these instances:

class AuthenticationBase(object):
    def post(self, url, data=None, headers=None):
        response = requests.post(url=url, data=json.dumps(data),
                                 headers=headers)
        return self._process_response(response)

    def get(self, url, params=None, headers=None):
        return requests.get(url=url, params=params, headers=headers).text

but there may well be others.

As noted on the requests documentation:

Nearly all production code should use this parameter in nearly all requests. Failure to do so can cause your program to hang indefinitely
