A flaw was found in curl. When curl is configured to use distinct proxies for different URL schemes, a redirect from a URL using an authenticated proxy to one using an unauthenticated proxy can inadvertently expose the initial proxy's credentials. This improper credential management (CWE-522) may allow an attacker to gain unauthorized access or information by intercepting these disclosed credentials.
