{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2026-111755","details":"follow-redirects is a Node.js HTTP and HTTPS client wrapper that automatically follows redirects. From 1.16.0 until 1.16.1, escapeRegex leaves valid header-name metacharacters unescaped in sensitiveHeaders. When an application declares a sensitive header whose name contains ^ or | and follows a cross-origin or HTTPS-to-HTTP redirect, unescaped regular-expression metacharacters prevent the generated filter from matching the declared header name, and the credential header is forwarded to an attacker-controlled redirect target. This issue is fixed in version 1.16.1.","modified":"2026-10-20T08:00:06.522072262Z","published":"2026-10-20T07:47:32.729958410Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-111755"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-111755"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"node-follow-redirects","ecosystem":"Debian:12","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/node-follow-redirects?arch=source&distro=bookworm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.15.11+~1.14.4-1","1.15.11+~1.14.4-2","1.15.2+~1.14.1-1","1.15.3+~1.14.2-1","1.15.6+~1.14.4-1","1.15.6+~1.14.4-2","1.15.9+~1.14.4-1","1.16.0+~1.14.4-1","1.16.0+~1.14.4-2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-111755.json"}},{"package":{"name":"node-follow-redirects","ecosystem":"Debian:13","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/node-follow-redirects?arch=source&distro=trixie"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.15.11+~1.14.4-1","1.15.11+~1.14.4-2","1.15.9+~1.14.4-1","1.16.0+~1.14.4-1","1.16.0+~1.14.4-2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-111755.json"}},{"package":{"name":"node-follow-redirects","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/node-follow-redirects?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.15.11+~1.14.4-1","1.15.11+~1.14.4-2","1.15.9+~1.14.4-1","1.16.0+~1.14.4-1","1.16.0+~1.14.4-2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-111755.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
