Description

The HTTP client drops sensitive headers after following a cross-domain redirect. For example, a request to a.com/ containing an Authorization header which is redirected to b.com/ will not send that header to b.com. In the event that the client received a subsequent same-domain redirect, however, the sensitive headers would be restored. For example, a chain of redirects from a.com/, to b.com/1, and finally to b.com/2 would incorrectly send the Authorization header to b.com/2.
A flaw was found in the net/http package of the Golang standard library. The HTTP client drops sensitive headers after following a cross-domain redirect. For example, a request to `a.com/` containing an Authorization header redirected to `b.com/` will not send that header to `b.com`. However, the sensitive headers would be restored if the client received a subsequent same-domain redirect. For example, a chain of redirects from `a.com/`, to `b.com/1`, and finally to `b.com/2` would incorrectly send the Authorization header to `b.com/2`.
