CVE-2022-23607: Unsafe handling of user-specified cookies in treq
(updated )
Treq’s request methods (treq.get
, treq.post
, HTTPClient.request
, HTTPClient.get
, etc.) accept cookies as a dictionary, for example:
treq.get('https://example.com/', cookies={'session': '1234'})
Such cookies are not bound to a single domain, and are therefore sent to every domain (“supercookies”). This can potentially cause sensitive information to leak upon an HTTP redirect to a different domain., e.g. should https://example.com
redirect to http://cloudstorageprovider.com
the latter will receive the cookie session
.
