Exploit availability: No public exploit available

Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to insertion of sensitive information into sent data in the Node.js HTTP adapter when following an HTTP-to-HTTPS redirect from a proxied request to a direct request. A remote attacker can trigger a crafted redirect flow to disclose sensitive information.

Only Node.js requests using the HTTP adapter are affected, and exploitation requires redirects to be followed and proxy credentials to be configured for the initial HTTP request but not for the redirected HTTPS request.
