Open advisories
2 actionable advisories, newest first. Withdrawn advisories and news are excluded. Coverage is partial.
Impact The redirect follower middleware previously failed to strip a number of headers that are known to be sensitive and did not provide a way to provide a custom list of headers to strip. What kind of vulnerability is it? Who is impacted? This could cause inadvertent leakage of sensitive data for users of the RedirectFollower middleware in cases where the initial request includes header information that is not intended for the new target. Patches Patch exists and is released in v1.5.0 Workarounds Users can backport the fix to a custom redirect follower middleware.
Recommended action: Upgrade to 1.5.0 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
Impact There was a race condition around persistent connections, where a connection which is interrupted (such as by a timeout) would leave data on the socket. Subsequent requests would then read this data, returning content from the previous response. The race condition window appears to be short, and it would be difficult to purposefully exploit this. Patches The problem has been patched in 0.71.0, users should upgrade to this or a newer version (if one exists). Workarounds Users can workaround the problem by disabling persistent connections, though this may cause performance implications. References See the patch for further details.
