It is required that a server has such redirects and that the user visits it for the attack to take place. Patched python-urllib3 versions remove the Authorization header by default on redirects. Mitigation: Use `retries=urllib3.Retry(redirect=0)` when performing requests if you do not need redirection and handle the redirects manually if you need them.

It is required that a > server has such redirects and that the user visits it for the attack to take > place. Actually this flaw can be triggered even when the redirect is cross-origin, thus the redirection can go on another server as well. User Interaction set to Required (UI:R) because the user needs to visit the HTTPS server to trigger the vulnerability. Attack Vector set to Network(AV:N) because an attacker needs to perform a man-in-the-middle attack to get access to the transferred data. Attack Complexity set to High(AC:H) because the attack depends on the specific application that needs to be on HTTPS, to have a redirect to an HTTP server and to use HTTP authorization. Moreover, the attacker needs a man-in-the-middle attack.

Please refer to Red Hat Satellite Product Life Cycle page for more information. In Red Hat OpenStack Platform 13, because the flaw has a lower impact and the fix would require a substantial amount of development, no update will be provided at this time for the RHOSP python-urllib3 package. |
