Advisory Updated Date: 2022-09-21 20:03 Pacific
A flaw was found in wget. If wget sends an Authorization header as part of a query and receives an HTTP REDIRECT to a third party in return, the Authorization header will be forwarded as part of the redirected request. This issue creates a password leak, as the second server receives the password. The highest threat from this vulnerability is confidentiality. (CVE-2021-31879)
Affected Packages:
wget
Issue Correction:
Run dnf update wget --releasever=2022.0.20220921 to update your system.
