Amazon Linux 2023 Security Advisory: ALAS-2023-236
Advisory Release Date: 2023-07-05 20:13 Pacific
Advisory Updated Date: 2023-07-20 00:56 Pacific
Severity:
Medium
Issue Overview:
A flaw was found in the Python-requests package, where it is vulnerable to potentially leaking Proxy-Authorization headers to destination servers, specifically during redirects to an HTTPS origin. This is a product of how rebuild_proxies is used to recompute and reattach the Proxy-Authorization header to requests when redirected. This behavior only affects proxied requests when credentials are supplied in the URL user information component (for example, https://username:password@proxy:8080). (CVE-2023-32681)
Affected Packages:
python-requests
Issue Correction:
Run dnf update python-requests --releasever 2023.1.20230719 to update your system.
