Proxy credential disclosure via cross-origin redirects
Published Jun 11, 2025 · Updated Jun 11, 2025
Header disclosure in Go standard library net/http before 1.23.10 and 1.24.0-0 before 1.24.4 allows remote attackers to read proxy credentials. Client.makeHeadersCopier omits Proxy-Authorization and Proxy-Authenticate from the sensitive-header set, so redirect requests copy them to another origin. Exploitation requires a client to set either proxy header, follow an attacker-controlled cross-origin redirect, and send the redirected request; exposure is limited to the header contents.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=0 <1.23.10
- Affected versionversion=1.24.0-0 <1.24.4
