GHSA-4jc5-g844-4x33

GHSA-4jc5-g844-4x33 is a Information Exposure vulnerability in linuxfabrik-lib. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-4jc5-g844-4x33 is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.

Description

Summary

lib.url.fetch() follows HTTP redirects (follow_redirects=True). httpx strips only Authorization and Cookie when a redirect crosses the origin, so any other caller-supplied credential header (a session token such as Redfish's X-Auth-Token, an API key, ...) was still sent to the redirect target. A malicious or redirect-capable server can therefore answer an authenticated request with a 3xx to an attacker-chosen host and receive the credential (server-side request forgery + token disclosure). The pre-httpx urllib implementation was worse: it forwarded every header, including Authorization, across cross-host redirects.

Impact

Any plugin that authenticates to a host with a non-standard auth header and follows that host's redirects can be coerced into sending the credential, and an authenticated request, to another host the monitoring server can reach. The concrete case is the Redfish checks (X-Auth-Token), but the flaw is in the shared fetch() and affects every consumer.

Patches

Fixed in linuxfabrik-lib 6.0.0 (commit 6573ff9). On a cross-origin redirect (any scheme/host/port change other than a plain same-host HTTP-to-HTTPS upgrade) fetch() now keeps only benign transport headers and drops every other caller-supplied header, so credentials never follow a redirect to a different origin.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for linuxfabrik-lib. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.

  2. Fix

    Update linuxfabrik-lib to 6.0.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-4jc5-g844-4x33 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.

  4. How O3 protects you

    O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-4jc5-g844-4x33 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.

Tailored to GHSA-4jc5-g844-4x33. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
