Amazon Linux 2 Security Advisory: ALAS-2023-2111
Advisory Release Date: 2023-07-05 22:01 Pacific
Advisory Updated Date: 2023-07-19 22:27 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:
python3-requests
Issue Correction:
Run yum update python3-requests to update your system.
New Packages:
noarch:
python3-requests-2.14.2-2.amzn2.0.3.noarch
src:
