Failure to strip Proxy-Authorization header on change in origin
How it was found
Summary:
Failure to strip Proxy-Authorization header on change in origin.
AI was not used. I maintain the PHP Guzzle HTTP package which uses curl, and noticed we have the same issue as curl in this regard. I was made aware of this issue when golang patched something similar a few hours ago: CVE-2025–4673.
Affected version
8.14.1
Steps To Reproduce:
cURL appears to strip authorization and cookie, but not proxy-authorization. Send a request to a server that responds with a redirect to another host with all three headers set, and notice only the first two get stripped off the follow-up request.
