CVE-2022-4317Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Credential disclosure via cross-origin redirect header forwarding

Published Mar 9, 2023 · Updated Feb 28, 2025

Information exposure in GitLab DAST 1.47 through 3.0.50 allows remote authenticated users to read custom request headers via redirects. When a scanned resource redirects to another origin, the analyzer follows the redirect without stripping DAST_REQUEST_HEADERS and forwards those configured values to the destination. The leak requires a scan configured with custom headers to crawl attacker-controlled content that redirects off-origin, exposing credentials carried in those headers.
