Doc Type: If docs needed, set a value
Doc Text:
The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes this flaw as: Cross-Site Tracing occurs when a server will echo a request back via the Trace method, allowing an XSS attack to access to authorization headers and cookies inaccessible to JavaScript (such as cookies protected by HTTPOnly). To mitigate this attack, browsers placed limits on fetch() and XMLHttpRequest; however some webservers have implemented non-standard headers such as X-Http-Method-Override that override the HTTP method, and made this attack possible again. Firefox has applied the same mitigations to the use of this and similar headers.

Description Dhananjay Arunesh 2022-11-16 10:56:32 UTC 
Cross-Site Tracing occurs when a server will echo a request back via the Trace method, allowing an XSS attack to access to authorization headers and cookies inaccessible to JavaScript (such as cookies protected by HTTPOnly).  To mitigate this attack, browsers placed limits on `fetch()` and XMLHttpRequest; however some webservers have implemented non-standard headers such as `X-Http-Method-Override` that override the HTTP method, and made this attack possible again.  Thunderbird has applied the same mitigations to the use of this and similar headers.
