{"id":"ALPINE-CVE-2026-7017","details":"HTTP::Tiny versions before 0.095 for Perl forward credential headers to cross-origin redirect targets.\n\nWhen the server returns a 3xx redirect, `_maybe_redirect` follows the `Location:` header and `_prepare_headers_and_cb` re-merges the caller's `headers` argument into the new request, without checking whether the redirect target shares an origin with the original URL. Caller-supplied `Authorization`, `Cookie` and `Proxy-Authorization` headers are therefore re-sent to whatever host the redirect names, across scheme, host or port boundaries, and including `https` to `http` downgrades that expose them in plaintext on the wire.\n\nThe HTTP::Tiny POD note that \"Authorization headers will not be included in a redirected request\" applied only to the URL-userinfo Basic-auth path, not to headers passed explicitly by the caller.","modified":"2026-11-03T19:30:02.809058067Z","published":"2026-07-07T19:16:55.530Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-7017"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security.alpinelinux.org/vuln/CVE-2026-7017"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"perl","ecosystem":"Alpine:v3.24","purl":"pkg:apk/alpine/perl?arch=source"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"5.42.3-r0"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/alpine/ALPINE-CVE-2026-7017.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.2","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:N"}]}
