Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insufficiently Protected Credentials which can be leaked from output_auth_headers() when redirecting with an OAuth2 bearer token. If a hostname that is the target of a redirect matches an entry in the .netrc file with either the machine or default keywords, the data from the first host can be forwarded in the bearer token to the second host.
