cpp-httplib Client Leaks Authentication Credentials to Untrusted Hosts on Cross-Origin HTTP Redirect

Platform

cpp

Component

cpp-httplib

Fixed in

0.39.0

cpp-httplib is a C++11 single-file header-only cross platform HTTP/HTTPS library. Prior to 0.39.0, the cpp-httplib HTTP client forwards stored Basic Auth, Bearer Token, and Digest Auth credentials to arbitrary hosts when following cross-origin HTTP redirects (301/302/307/308). A malicious or compromised server can redirect the client to an attacker-controlled host, which then receives the plaintext credentials in the `Authorization` header. Version 0.39.0 fixes the issue.

How to fix

Actualice la biblioteca cpp-httplib a la versión 0.39.0 o superior. Esto corregirá la vulnerabilidad que permite la fuga de credenciales de autenticación a hosts no confiables durante las redirecciones HTTP de origen cruzado.
