leaking host credentials to HTTP proxy
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
An HTTP proxy can trick libcurl into sending the origin's credentials (Basic
password, or a Negotiate/Kerberos ticket) to the proxy itself, by answering
the `CONNECT` tunnel request with 401 `WWW-Authenticate:` instead of the
expected 407 `Proxy-Authenticate:`.
