TL;DR

reactor-netty-http can leak credentials during a WebSocket handshake redirect to a different origin. This happens when the HTTP client is explicitly configured to follow redirects. A remote party that triggers such a redirect can receive credentials meant for the original host. The patch stops forwarding credentials across that redirect.

Who does this affect?

You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range and the WebSocket client is explicitly configured to follow redirects.

Background info

reactor-netty-http is vulnerable to Information Disclosure in versions 0.0.1 - 1.3.6.

How to fix this

Upgrade the io.projectreactor.netty:reactor-netty-http library to the patch version.
