Описание
urllib3 is a user-friendly HTTP client library for Python. Prior to 2.5.0, it is possible to disable redirects for all requests by instantiating a PoolManager and specifying retries in a way that disable redirects. By default, requests and botocore users are not affected. An application attempting to mitigate SSRF or open redirect vulnerabilities by disabling redirects at the PoolManager level will remain vulnerable. This issue has been patched in version 2.5.0.
A flaw was found in urllib3. The PoolManager class allows redirects to be disabled by configuring retries in a specific manner, effectively bypassing intended HTTP redirection behavior. A network attacker can leverage this configuration to manipulate request flows and disrupt service. This bypass occurs through improper handling of retry parameters during PoolManager instantiation. This issue can reult in a denial of service or unintended data exposure due to altered request destinations.
Отчет
A flaw was found in the urllib3 library where it could be tricked into disclosing the Proxy-Authorization header to a destination server when a CONNECT tunnel is used. An attacker can set up a malicious redirect to a crafted URL, which, when followed by the client application, will cause the Proxy-Authorization header to be sent to the attacker-controlled server. This leaks sensitive credentials for the proxy. The impact is primarily on confidentiality. While urllib3 is a ubiquitous component, the vulnerability requires a specific scenario where a user is connecting to a proxy that requires authentication and is redirected to a malicious endpoint. This lowers the exploitability compared to a direct, unauthenticated remote attack, thus, warranting a Moderate severity rating.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
